This is a class action on behalf of hourly paid employees for violating Nevada’s daily overtime law for shift jamming. In Nevada, under NRS 608.018, employees who earn less than 1 and ½ times the minimum wage and who work more than eight (8) hours in a day must be paid their overtime premium rate for all hours worked over eight (8) in 24 hours. Thus, an employee who works a shift with less than 16 hours between the end of one shift and the beginning of the next shift (“jammed shift”) must be paid overtime premium pay for any hours over eight. Plaintiff sought unpaid wages for all hours and overtime hours worked, together with attorneys’ fees, costs, interest, and injunctive relief, as provided by law. Plaintiff also sought sixty days of pay as continuation wage waiting time penalties.
This case was settled on an individual basis in April of 2025.
If you work in Nevada and earn less than 1 and ½ times minimum wage, who worked more than eight (8) hours in a day and/or were required to work a shift with less than 16 hours between the end of one shift and the beginning of the next, please contact Thierman Buck, LLP immediately to discuss your rights.
