A class action lawsuit has been filed following allegations that Hewlett-Packard Company, (HP) has been incorrectly categorizing some of its employees as “exempt” and failing to pay them for overtime hours in violation of federal employment law.
HP’s technical support workers, who work in titles such as Technical Solutions Consultants, Technical Solutions Representatives, Technical Support Engineers, and Senior Technical Support Engineers, among others, are responsible for installing, maintaining, and/or supporting computer software and hardware. The lawsuit alleges that these workers were unlawfully denied overtime pay.
