    Program Description:

    Employment Class Actions have been on the rise and are not going away.  While the proposed FLSA salary changes did not go in affect in 2016, wage and hour claims are still as active as ever and have been having a renewed focus on misclassification of workers as independent contractors.  There is also a new popular class action – claims based on the FCRA, background checks, and proper notices. The details of these claims will be discussed, as well as practical ways to avoid litigation in these areas.
