What is a collective action?
A collective action is a type of lawsuit recognized under federal law. The concept of a collective action allows a single person or a group to bring a legal suit on behalf of themselves and others who have similar complaints. However, before proceeding as a group, the Court must authorize the collective action. As the case is still in its early stages, this authorization has not been granted yet. Nevertheless, we plan to either negotiate with the company or file a motion with the Court at the appropriate time to request for conditional certification.
Which locations are included?
Team Leads, Press Operators, Production Operators, Paint Production Operators, Clerks or Shipping and Receiving Production Engineers, Quality Engineers, Tool Crib Attendants, or Attendance Takers who work for or have worked for Teijin Automotive Technologies in any state across the country within the past 3 years may make a demand for overtime wages.
How do I make a claim?
In order to make a claim, you must sign a Consent Form.
What timeframe does this matter cover?
There is a statute of limitations, which allows workers to recover unpaid overtime wages within specific time periods. Under federal law, the statute of limitation is two to three years back from when we file your demand.
Do I have to pay anything?
We are handling these matters on a contingency fee basis. This means we will only be paid if we are successful in obtaining relief either through a settlement, award, or a final judgment, and that payment will only come out of that settlement, award, or final judgment and not your pocket.
How do I prove if I worked overtime?
If you have records of the hours you worked, please preserve and keep them until we ask you for them. However, you do not need to have records of your work hours to make a claim for your overtime pay. If Teijin Automotive Technologies did not keep accurate time records, you are permitted to make a good-faith estimate of your work hours. We will seek any records the company may have of your hours worked as well.
