My employer is getting sued for violating the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) by not paying employees time and a half for overtime.
I'm afraid to join the suit because I fear retaliation (retaliation is prohibited by law but still).
Has anyone been in a similar situation?
This is a throw away account btw.
Edit- Y'all, thanks for all the replies. I'm going to contact the plaintiff's lawyers.
This happened at a place I worked. All of the employees who'd been shafted got paid back pay and got a raise. It was settled out of court. It is pretty much a slam dunk case if they are violating fair labor laws.
