A class action lawsuit filed by a former call center worker claims Rushmore Loan Management Services failed to pay appropriate overtime wages under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Filed in Texas federal court, the suit alleges the defendant, a national wholesale loan originator, did not pay call center workers for hours worked over 40 in a workweek, but rather a flat rate regardless of the number of hours worked. According to the complaint, call center workers are logged into a predictive dialer system for six to eight hours per day. The defendant reportedly required employees to “volunteer” to work one Saturday each month for four hours.

The plaintiff also claims he was wrongfully terminated in retaliation for not “volunteering” to work Saturday shifts.
