Are You Owed Unpaid Overtime?
We are actively investigating overtime wage violations involving Target Corp. and Dollar General Corp. Employees classified as exempt from overtime pay are alleging they were forced to perform non-managerial tasks while regularly working over 40 hours per week without proper compensation. If you worked as an assistant team leader at Target or a managerial employee at Dollar General, you may be eligible to recover unpaid wages.
Who May Be Affected?
- Target Employees: Executive team leaders and other similarly classified employees nationwide
- Dollar General Employees: Managerial workers and other similarly classified employees nationwide
Key Allegations:
- Overtime Misclassification: Employees were labeled as exempt from overtime while performing primarily non-managerial duties
- Unpaid Overtime Wages: Many workers regularly exceeded 40-hour workweeks but did not receive overtime pay
- Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) Violations: Target and Dollar General allegedly violated federal labor laws by misclassifying workers to cut labor costs
- State Wage Law Violations: Employees may also have claims under state wage laws for additional damages
Case Background:
- Target: It is alleged that executive team leaders were scheduled for 47.5+ hour workweeks, spending most of their time performing non-exempt duties such as:
- Unloading trucks
- Stocking shelves
- Operating cash registers
- Filling online orders
- Yet, they did not receive overtime pay.
- Dollar General: It is alleged that managerial employees worked 60+ hours per week performing manual labor instead of actual managerial tasks—without overtime pay.
