SSH and our co-counsel Johnson, Clifton, Larson & Schaller represent current & former consumer sales representatives (CSR) in a wage and hour collective action against Dell. The case is David Norman et.al v. Dell, Inc, et. al.. Case No. 6:07-CV-6026-TC filed in U.S. District Court in Eugene, Oregon. The lawsuit alleges that Dell violates federal and state wage and hour laws by failing to accurately record all time worked and failing to pay earned wages and overtime. Examples of the unlawful practices claimed include: (1) requiring employees to work "off the clock" by not paying for work performed pre-shift, post-shift, and over unpaid meal breaks; (2) utilizing an inherently inaccurate time-keeping system called "Kronos;" and (3) improperly calculating overtime using a "half-time" overtime rate.
On July 10, 2008, the Court conditionally certified the claims of CSR that were filed under the Fair Labor Standards Act. The Court's certification order applies to current and former full-time CSR at Dell's call centers across the country, and who worked for Dell between February 8, 2004, and the present. The Court's Order did not include part-time CSR or those employees who worked in the SRS queue. Click here to read the Court's Order.
On September 12, 2008, we sent notice to CSR who are eligible to join the case notifying them about the case and providing the paperwork for them to join. The notice describes the lawsuit and answers many frequently asked questions. Click here to read the notice.
