Plaintiffs, who are former and current employees of Teleperformance,  filed this lawsuit on their own behalf and also as a class action on behalf of other similarly situated current and former employees. Plaintiffs allege claims for unpaid regular non-overtime wages (i.e., unpaid wages for weeks where the total hours worked were less than 40 hours) and unpaid overtime wages.

As we discussed in the "important information about this case" page, any alleged unpaid overtime wages are covered by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Under FLSA the overtime must be paid at the rate of time-and-a-half of wages for all hours worked over 40 hours in a week.

In addition to the overtime wages, Plaintiffs allege that employees may also be eligible for unpaid straight non-overtime wages for all the hours worked during the weeks when the total hours worked were less than 40 hours per week. Plaintiffs allege that by not paying employees for all the regular non-overtime hours worked, Teleperformace violated the wage and hour laws of states of Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, New Mexico, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, and Utah.  However, the Court or a jury has not established any liability on part of Teleperformance as of this time.

Also, Plaintiffs allege that Teleperformance had a contract (written and/or oral) with the employees where Teleperformance contracted to pay a specific rate of regular, non-overtime compensation for each hour worked by the employees. But allegedly by failing to pay employees the agreed amount for all non-overtime hours worked, Plaintiffs argue that Teleperformance breached the contract. Therefore, Plaintiffs are seeking recovery of unpaid non-overtime wages under breach of contract. 

Plaintiffs are seeking recovery of alleged unpaid regular (non-overtime) wages for a proposed class of people who worked for Teleperformance and were not compensated for all the hours worked during the weeks when they worked less than 40 hours in a week.
