Beginning on December 31, 2019, non-exempt employees* are entitled to a minimum hourly wage of $15.00 in New York City; $13.00 in Long Island and Westchester, and 11.80 in the rest of the state. Across the United States, workers who work over 40 hours in any given workweek must be paid at time-and-one-half of their hourly pay rate. Employers who require employees to work off-the-clock, clean their own uniforms, and deliver using their bicycles and motorcycles without reimbursing them for the costs are violating the law.  We have represented clients in at least 100 cases before the Second Circuit and across the country to recover from your employer money to which you are entitled.

If you receive a flat rate regardless of the number of hours that you work or if you work more than forty (40) hours without receiving overtime pay at one and one half (1.5) times your regular hourly rate for each hour you work, you may be eligible for overtime compensation, including compensatory and liquidated damages.
