Case ID: 2802 | Employment | 07/22/2004
A nationwide class action has been filed against Bank One, N.A. on behalf of all non-supervisory Group Bankers employed by Bank One since September 29, 2000, who allege that the company has not paid them overtime for hours they work in excess of their normal 40-hour workweek, in violation of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Qualified employees should join the action as soon as possible to prevent forfeiture of benefits because of the operation of federal statutory deadlines.
The action alleges that these employees work an average of 55 hours per week attempting to obtain accounts from other businesses for the direct deposit of employees' paychecks. Once they have gotten the go-ahead from a business, they then seek out employees of the business and attempt to convince them to use Bank One's direct deposit services. They are allegedly only paid a base salary, with no overtime benefits. At Lawcash.com, it is our goal to keep you informed about important legal cases, class actions and settlements.
