A group of 35 current and former employees filed a lawsuit against Pepsi claiming that the company failed to pay them overtime according to the FLSA.
The lawsuit claims that Pepsi paid the employees according to terms set out in a 2007 union agreement, but those terms do not meet federal requirements for overtime pay.
The lawsuit claims that Pepsi willfully violated the federal wage and overtime laws because the company knew that the employees could not be classified under the Federal Motor Carrier exemption, but refused to pay employees overtime wages.
The Pepsi workers are seeking to recover unpaid overtime compensation, liquidated damages, attorneys' fees and costs.
