Oilfield services provider Halliburton Co has agreed to pay $18.3 million total to over 1,000 U.S. employees in pending overtime wages, the U.S. Labor Department said.

 
Halliburton, which was investigated as part of a multi-year compliance initiative in the oil and gas industry in the Southwest and Northeast, incorrectly categorized employees in 28 job positions as exempt from overtime, the department said on Tuesday.
