SEATTLE — Our overtime pay lawyers are currently handling an Amazon Warehouse Staffing Solutions class action lawsuit on behalf of Integrity Staffing Solutions employees alleging there was a violation of the Federal Labor Standards Act (FLSA). In addition to violation of the FLSA, the lawsuit was also filed for alleged state labor laws violation.
The lead plaintiff in the overtime pay lawsuit is Jesse Busk. Mr. Busk worked at the Amazon warehouse for one year and put in a 12 hour shift at the warehouse. At the end of his shift after he clocked out, he would wait in line to go through a security checkpoint.
Every Amazon.com warehouse employee was required to go through this checkpoint before leaving as it was the company’s way to minimize loss of product from warehouse theft. However, Mr. Busk, along with other Amazon.com warehouse employees found themselves waiting in line for up to 30 minutes unpaid, or “off the clock” after completing a long 12 hour shift.
Our unpaid overtime attorneys filed the lawsuit against both Integrity Staffing and Amazon.com. Integrity Staffing assigns employees to Amazon.com warehouses.
The lawsuit seeks payment for the time employees spent waiting at a security checkpoint at the end of their workday already “off the clock.” Employees were not paid for this time that was required by the employer, and therefore waited in line on their own personal time.
In addition to not being paid wages for their time waiting, the unpaid overtime class action lawsuit also seeks payment for employees not receiving mandatory overtime pay.
Workers who stay after hours without compensation or overtime pay do have legal rights and may be able to file a wage and hour claim for unpaid overtime benefits. Similar overtime pay lawsuits, such as the Amazon class action lawsuit, are being filed throughout the United States in a number of occupations and industries.
