Healthcare Aides Overtime Pay Violations

If you are a home health care worker, you may be entitled to receive overtime pay depending on the types of services you provide and the nature of your working relationship.

Do You Work For A Home Care Aide Agency?

Companies that hire workers to provide home health care services for individuals who (because of age or disability) are unable to care for themselves may be required to pay overtime compensation.

Workers are usually entitled to overtime if they work for a home care aide company and spend most of their time providing assistance with activities of daily living. This type of care includes assistance with dressing, grooming, feeding, bathing, toileting and transferring. It can also include things that enable a person to live independently at home, like preparing meals, driving, light housework, and assistance with taking medications.

Recently, courts have awarded overtime pay to home health care aides who worked 24-hour live-in shifts but were not paid time-and-a-half for working over 40 hours in a week.
