Unpaid overtime wages is a common problem, and a class action lawsuit recently filed against AT&T in California shows how pervasive it can be.

The lawsuit accuses the telecom giant of failing to pay overtime to training specialists. Those employees say they often worked long hours and weekends but did not get their overtime pay because AT&T misclassified them as being exempt from overtime pay.

Not paying required overtime is a violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act.
