Legal Question in Employment Law in South Carolina

Over time in SC

My husband works for a dry cleaners in Charleston, SC. When my husband works over 40 hrs in a week, his boss refuses to pay him time and a half. His boss says the business is classified as ''seasonal'' and my husband is a ''seasonal employee.'' The cleaners is open year round, and my husband has been working there for the past 3 years, 12 months a year. He is not paid salary, he is an hourly employee. Is this boss playing it straight, or breaking the law by not paying my husband for his overtime?

I'd have serious concerns about FLSA violations in this case.
