Frequently Asked Questions

Is time spent in security screening paid?

It can be. Some states and courts treat required screening as work time, while the federal rule has limits. A lawyer can tell you what applies.

What counts as security screening time?

Waiting in line for bag checks, metal detectors or exit searches before or after your shift can all add up to unpaid time.

Does it matter if the screening is after I clock out?

Yes. Many employers have workers clock out first, so the wait may not appear on your pay stub even when it is required.

What evidence helps a screening time claim?

Time clock records, screening policies, dated messages about wait times and coworkers who went through the same line all help.

How far back can I claim unpaid screening time?

Deadlines depend on your state and the type of claim. Federal wage claims generally must be filed within two years, or three if the violation was willful.

Does YesLawyer help with screening time claims in every state?

YesLawyer connects people with lawyers across the country, though state and case eligibility apply. Whether your claim can be taken depends on your state and the facts of your case.
