At least 15 class action lawsuits against Enterprise were consolidated into a multidistrict litigati
In August 2013, a federal judge approved a $7.75 million class action settlement with Enterprise Rent-A-Car Company (“Enterprise”) over alleged wage and hour violations. This settlement is part of a growing trend of wage and hour lawsuits that allege companies violated labor laws by not paying their employees what federal law requires.
A former assistant branch manager employed at Enterprise filed a nationwide Fair Labor Standards Act-class action for unpaid overtime on behalf of himself and all individuals employed during the putative class period as assistant branch managers at the various Enterprise locations. According to the lawsuit, branch managers were improperly classified as exempt employees, a trend that has become more common as employers look to cut corners in a weakening economy.
The FLSA regulates the compensation of employees and sets rules for overtime, minimum wage, and other aspects of employee compensation. State wage and hour laws can provide greater protection than the FLSA but they cannot fall below the bar set by the federal law. Exemptions to these requirements must meet certain qualifications. Like California, Pennsylvania is one of the states that require higher minimum wages and different rules for overtime than the FLSA.
