Report Link Rising Class and Collective Lawsuits in Employment
Krukowski & Costello, S.C. - August 31, 2009
Thomas P. Krukowski analyzes the rise of class and collective lawsuits in employment-related litigation as employees seek proper pay and fair treatment while employers seek to defend their policies and practices. Mr. Krukowski discusses the differences between the two types of group litigation, reasons for the increase, and why the trend is expected to continue. Numerous other issues are reviewed, including the historic Dukes v. Wal-Mart litigation. He also sets forth general recommendations for employers, including the careful auditing and monitoring of employment policies, practices and decisions to ensure that employees are treated fairly, consistently, and in accordance with developing legal standards, as well as developing an understanding of how statistical analyses are used and applied in these types of claims.
