When Can Employees File a Class Action Instead of Individual Claims?
Class actions may be appropriate when an employer applies the same unlawful pay, overtime, break, or classification policy to multiple workers. Our attorneys have extensive experience in employment class actions to investigate companywide policies, coordinate claims across large workforces, and pursue meaningful recovery against systemic workplace violations. We can analyze whether the legal requirements for class certification are met and determine if a class action is the strongest path forward.
What Are Protected Classes in Employment Law?
Protected classes or characteristics refer to legally defined traits that employers are prohibited from using as a basis for adverse employment decisions. These include race, color, ethnicity, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, and transgender status), religion, disability, age, genetic information, and other traits protected under state or federal law.
