Should I be paid as an in-home healthcare worker providing assistance for patients at their homes?

A:

The Fair Labor Standards Act regulations for the healthcare industry can get complicated. Many people working in the home health care industry may be eligible to receive overtime pay, though many times they are misclassified under the laws.

If you are a health care worker not paid overtime, you should have a review of your job duties to make sure you are being paid correctly.
