Zumiez Settles California Class Action Suit

by The Editors on July 16, 2009

Zumiez-NotaglineZumiez has settled a class action lawsuit with some California employees regarding overtime pay and food breaks to the tune of $1.3 million, according to story in the Puget Sound Business Journal.

Zumiez said a former employee alleged that the company didn’t pay all overtime owed to the worker, didn’t provide meal breaks as provided by California law, didn’t provide employees with proper itemized pay stubs, and didn’t pay fired employees their waiting time penalties as required by California law. . . The class-action suit covers Zumiez employees, except store managers, who worked in California from March 5, 2004 to Sept. 13, 2009.

If you worked at a California Zumiez during that time, better check in to see if you can finally get paid.
