Are you owed wages? We can help!
Experienced Toledo Ohio Overtime Attorneys
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and Ohio wage and hour laws were enacted to ensure that employees are properly compensated for the work they perform. Under the FLSA and Ohio law, most employees are required to receive overtime pay, at a rate of one-and-one-half times their regular hourly rate, for any hours worked in excess of 40 in a single 7-day workweek. These laws apply to nurses and home health care workers, call center and customer service employees, employees who perform manual labor, and many others.

But not only is this corporate greed unfair to you, it is also a violation of the law and of your rights.
