Report Link Executives Of Bankrupt Company Personally Liable For Employee Wages.
Barker Olmsted & Barnier - August 10, 2009
State and federal employment law is complicated and compliance can be tricky. Your company can be hit with expensive lawsuits. But what about you, personally? If the company violates the law, can you be held financially accountable? Yes, sometimes. A recent Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals case titled Boucher v. Shaw illustrates how certain company managers may be held personally liable for violations of federal wage and hour law.
Report Link Corporate Officers and Managers May Be Held Personally Liable for Unpaid Wages under FLSA.
Jackson Lewis LLP - August 07, 2009
Reinstating the plaintiffs’ complaint for unpaid wages under the Fair Labor Standards Act, the federal appeals court in San Francisco has held that the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and a manager responsible for labor and employment matters could be held individually liable for unpaid wages.
Report Link Total Wage and Hour Compliance: An Initiative to End the Wage and Hour Class Action War (pdf).
Littler Mendelson, P.C. - April 30, 2008
Wage and hour class actions are rising sharply and the potential exposure is unprecedented. The number of wage and hour class actions filed in federal courts more than doubled from 2001 to 2006, and settlements are frequently in the multi-million dollar range. Absent a complete and comprehensive approach to tackling wage and hour compliance, the trend is unlikely to end. In this report, a Littler Task Force lays out seven key components to help employers reach and maintain a level of compliance that greatly reduces the likelihood and cost of litigation. By implementing these components, a systematic process can be developed to move the level of wage and hour compliance as close to "total" as is reasonably possibly, with a sensible allocation of corporate resources.
