Cable technicians or cable installers owed unpaid overtime and hourly wages


If you work for cable company subcontractors know the 6 cable companies that may owe you back hourly wages and overtime pay.


Cable contractors rank high on the list of companies cheating cable technicians out of correct hourly wages and overtime pay. Our labor lawyers are experienced at helping cable technicians recover unpaid overtime. We are able to quickly determine violations in cable technicians' pay. Cable subcontractor companies who pay cable installers and cable technicians by piece-rate but deny them any overtime pay for hours over 40 are usually in violation of the labor laws.

If you are a cable technician or cable installer, you need to contact a labor attorney to determine if you are owed unpaid overtime by your cable contractor employer. We currently have active overtime lawsuits against several cable contractor companies in Texas, Florida, and Mississippi including:
  • Beyond Broadband Solutions, Inc.
  • Bucaneer Communications, Inc.
  • Integrated Electronic Technologies

Other cable companies with pay investigations:

  • Direct TV cable subcontractors
  • Baker, a contractor for Time Warner
  • ACI in Columbus, a contractor for Time Warner

Cable industry companies, particularly subcontractors of Dish Network and Time Warner, are notorious for failing to pay cable installers and technicians overtime pay. We have successfully represented cable installers and cable nationwide in lawsuits for unpaid overtime.

Common Wage Violations in the Cable Installation Industry Include:

Many cable installation companies fail to pay proper overtime wages or any overtime at all to their technicians. You may have a claim for unpaid overtime if you are a current or former cable installer or cable technician and experienced any of the following:

  • Your employer did not pay your overtime rate when you worked over forty hours in a week;
  • The cable contractor or company classified you as an independent contractor, or issued you a 1099 form;
  • Your employer did not keep records of your hours;
  • Your employer did not include time spent driving to and from job sites, time spent waiting for customers between jobs, or time spent working from home.
