Who can I contact to report my boss for not paying overtime?

The federal government oversees overtime pay through a specific office. According to the law, there is "created in the Department of Labor a Wage and Hour Division which shall be under the direction of an Administrator" [cite:us-title29-flsa-sec204]. This division is the specific government body responsible for administering the rules regarding wages and hours. Regarding your specific situation, the law generally requires that if you work more than forty hours in a single workweek, you must receive extra pay. Specifically, "no employer shall employ any of his employees who in any workweek is engaged in commerce... for a workweek longer than forty hours unless such employee receives compensation for his employment in excess of the hours above specified at a rate not less than one and one-half times the regular rate at which he is employed" [cite:us-title29-flsa-sec207]. This means that for the fifteen hours of overtime you worked last week (the difference between your fifty-five hours worked and forty regular hours), you are likely entitled to your regular rate of fifteen dollars per hour multiplied by 1.5. Your manager's claim that the rules are different for small, family-owned businesses is not supported by the general requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act. While there are very specific, narrow exemptions for certain industries—such as certain petroleum distributors or specific types of tobacco workers—being a small family business is not a standard legal excuse to deny overtime pay [cite:us-title29-flsa-sec207]. It is unsettled whether your specific warehouse qualifies for any rare industry-specific exemptions, but the burden is on the employer to prove they are exempt from these rules.
