Former Iowa overtime dispute defense cited at trial
Former state personnel director Linda Hanson defended the decision not to change policy despite knowing the state risked a federal labor law suit. Troopers argue the patrol’s discipline policy made sergeants eligible for overtime under the Fair Labor Standards Act, while the state contends sergeants are supervisors and exempt. The suit began in 1994, reached the Supreme Court, and centers on pay for back overtime. Public safety officials testified about sergeants guarding the governor and their duties.
