This lawsuit being brought under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA"), as a nation-wide collective action, on behalf of all UPS SCS drivers (outside the State of California) who have been classified as independent contractors in the United States in the last three years. This claim seeks to recover unpaid minimum wages and overtime wages for UPS SCS drivers, plus an additional equal amount as liquidated damages.
What Must I Do to Benefit from the FLSA Claim? Drivers who have worked for UPS SCS within the last three years can join this collective action by signing and sending to Attorneys prosecuting this case the attached Consent To Become A Party Plaintiff. The attorneys will file signed Consent Forms with the Court, and only those drivers who complete and return the consent form will then be parties to this lawsuit. These Consent forms are time sensitive. A driver can only recover FLSA damages going back, at most, three years from the date the Consent form is filed in Court. Therefore, drivers who want to participate in the FLSA claim in this action should submit a Consent Form promptly.
