Do you get paid for all of your work? No! You are not allowed to report all of your time. You are not getting paid for filling out papers, meetings, drive time, and more. You are owed money.
All time you spend working is time you need to get paid for. You have a legal right to report all hours that you work and to be paid for those hours.
Another serious wage violation that regularly occurs in the home healthcare field is to be paid straight-time for all the hours you work. You need to be paid time-and-a-half when working over 40 hours a week. Don’t listen to the people that say, “Oh, that’s just how it is for us.” It doesn’t have to be. The law is on your side and so are we.
If you find yourself questioning the legality of your pay, the quickest way to find out is to contact an expert in wage law. Like us. We are available to answer any questions you have and let you know if you have a legitimate claim against your employer.
