If you are considering filing an overtime lawsuit against your employer, you may worry about retaliation, such as losing your job. However, labor and employment laws are designed to protect workers from such actions. It is illegal for an employer to retaliate against you for asserting your legal rights, including filing a lawsuit for unpaid overtime. If your employer retaliates, they may face additional legal consequences beyond the initial lawsuit.

Unfortunately, many employees experience wage theft or other violations of their rights at the hands of rogue employers who think they can act without consequence. However, you have the power to fight back and demand justice.
