About the FLSA
Federal law protects employees' rights. Passed in 1938, the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) was landmark legislation passed to protect one of this nation’s most cherished principles: fair pay for honest work. Today, the rights of workers are under unprecedented assault by predatory employers. The violations are endless:
- Rank and file employees are commonly and wrongly classified as “white collar” and so therefore exempt from the FLSA.
- The requirement of paying overtime at a 150% premium is routinely ignored.
- An astonishing number of companies are intent on working employees “off the clock” to cut costs.
Most lawyers and law firms are daunted by the complexity of the FLSA and by the challenges of representing a class of employees against a huge corporation. Not us. We have successfully represented employees in wage and hour lawsuits against many Fortune 500 companies. Currently, we are pursuing collective action lawsuits against companies as diverse as the Regis Corporation (the world’s largest owner and operator of beauty salons) and TeleTech (a billion dollar call center operator).
For more information about FLSA claims, please see our FLSA website, which is devoted exclusively to the subject.
