Employment class action settlements
Class and collective action settlements over unpaid wages, overtime, and workplace discrimination.
Employment settlements by the numbers
A settlement fund is the total a defendant agreed to pay, not what any one claimant receives — most funds are divided among everyone who files. Settlements are negotiated agreements, and defendants typically deny wrongdoing rather than being found liable.
The 38 settlements in this category that publish a fund, grouped by size. Most cluster low and a few are very large — which is why the headline figure above is a median rather than an average.
| Fund size | Settlements | Share | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under $1M | 16 | 42% | |
| $1M – $5M | 17 | 45% | |
| $5M – $25M | 3 | 8% | |
| $25M – $100M | 0 | 0% | |
| $100M and up | 2 | 5% |
A fund is the total a defendant agreed to pay, not an individual payout.
