I am an oil service technician and I was fired after complaining about not being paid overtime. Is it legal for my employer to do this?
A:
Sometimes people are fired after complaining about pay issues to their employer. Under the Fair Labor Standards Act you have rights that protect you from employer retaliation. This includes retaliation if you are fired after complaining about pay practices or asking if you are paid correctly.
