CVS Employee National Class Action

A common question we are asked from people who have worked at CVS drug stores and have not been paid for that time is: “How do I get more information concerning my unpaid hours or work time?”  There have been times employees are asked to work or perform duties for their employer that are considered “off the clock.”

A few examples are:

1. Running errands outside of the workplace.
2. Offsite employee meetings
3. Offsite employee training
4. Offsite company parties
5. Off the clock security checks
6. and many others.

If you have been asked to perform work functions and not have been paid wages for this time, it is important that you explain these your situation to one of our attorneys. The reason is that your employment rights may have been violated and you are owed back wages.

This class action lawsuit has been filed against CVS (“Defendant”) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York (Case No. 10 Civ. 2075) on behalf of a class of current and former CVS employees, alleging that employees at CVS stores are subjected to off-the-clock security checks at the end of each shift which can take 30 minutes and that CVS employees are forced to work through meal and rest breaks without compensation, wages or overtime pay, in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) and New York State labor laws, according to a class action press release.
