Day Rate, Per Foot, Piece Rate: How Oilfield Companies Skip Overtime, and the Cases We've Won

Day rate, per-foot, piece-rate, salary or 1099: oilfield pay plans that skip overtime, and the certifications we've won in Texas, New Mexico and North Dakota.

Case Managers & Overtime

Case managers are routinely misclassified as exempt. If you coordinate patient care, manage caseloads, and follow protocols, you may be owed overtime.

Care Coordinators

Care coordinators perform the same misclassified work as case managers under a different title. The law protects you regardless of what your employer calls the role.

Utilization Review Nurses

UR nurses follow clinical guidelines and apply established criteria — that's not the kind of independent judgment that makes you exempt from overtime.
