A class action lawsuit has been filed in the Northern District Court of Georgia against Racetrac Petroleum, Inc. for violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Class members seek back pay, front pay, liquidated damages, interest, and attorney's fees and costs of the litigation.
Specifically, the complaint alleges that Caron was hired to work at the company's headquarters in Georgia as a Network Operation Center Operator, an exempt position. She claims that the position should have been classified as non-exempt because she exercised little independent judgment and that she should be compensated for the hours she regularly worked over forty hours. In addition, she alleges that she was terminated after complaining about the company's overtime policies and is also suing for retaliation. She also alleges that the company discriminated against her because of her sex because her pay was less than that of a male in the same position.
