Can Your Company Survive A Wage And Hour Class Action Lawsuit?

What steps is your company taking to prevent your entire workforce, past and present, from initiating a class action lawsuit for wage and hour violations? Will your management team be able to take timely, corrective action to reduce your company’s legal exposure and lessen the likelihood of litigation?

Even though individual employee claims for unpaid wages might be insignificant, when these claims are included in a single, class action lawsuit, the opposite is true. An employer’s financial exposure from a single, class action lawsuit can be millions of dollars.

Claims That Can Be Included In A Class Action Lawsuit

Wage claims from independent contractors or salaried employees for misclassification; claims for missed meal periods and/or rest periods; claims for unpaid overtime wages or unpaid minimum wage – any or all of these claims can be part of a single, class action lawsuit against your company.
