UPS Delivered Class Action Lawsuit

Case ID: 5542

Category: Employment

Last Update: 08/26/2009

Country:

A class action lawsuit filed against UPS claims the delivery giant has been withholding as much as $100 million in overtime wages from account managers throughout the United States.

Filed with the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California by Sanford Wittels & Heisler, the lawsuit says UPS requires account managers to work up to 60 hours a week but claims these workers do not deserve to get overtime pay.

Laura Meza, a UPS account manager in Fullerton, Calif., brought the action that alleges violations of the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act and Californias wage and hour laws. She aims to represent thousands of other UPS account managers, said a statement from the law firm.

According to Meza, UPS fails to pay its account managers overtime wages for work in excess of 40 hours a week and eight hours a day; fails to provide these workers with mandatory meal period and rest breaks, and fails to keep accurate records of the hours these employees work.
