This document summarizes wage and hour disputes and class action claims. It discusses common issues like unpaid overtime, minimum wage violations, and misclassifying employees. Employers face risks like liability for violations without needing intent, and class actions where small amounts from multiple plaintiffs become large. Recent cases and settlements are cited, as well as increasing state minimum wages and the President's plans to raise the federal minimum wage for contractors. Exemptions from overtime for job types and nursing mother break requirements are also covered.
