MORE WAGE AND HOUR CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS HAVE BEEN FILED IN RECENT YEARS THAN ALL OTHER TYPES OF EMPLOYMENT CLASS ACTIONS COMBINED
For example:
Wells Fargo settled a FLSA-related case for $13 million
IBM settled a FLSA class action lawsuit for $65 million
Wal-Mart paid out over $250,000,000 over the span of less than a year for FLSA overtime violations
Last year alone, the DOL recovered more than $171,500,000 in back wages for more than 246,000 employees. FLSA violations have now replaced discrimination claims as the Department of Labor's top enforcement target.
