Mark Shallin, Bryan Winslow, Juan Terry and Melissa Pennington v. Payless Shoesource Inc., Collective Brands Inc., Collective Brand Services Inc., Payless Shoesource Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan and Payless Shoesource Inc. as Plan Administrator: National discount shoe retailer Payless Shoesource has agreed to pay $2.9 million to a group of store managers who claim they were misclassified as managers and as a result denied overtime pay.
Plaintiffs’ lawyers claim that the settlement could affect as many as 3,000 employees in 3,499 stores nationwide. The lawsuit, which likely would have sought class action status had it not been for the settlement, was filed in U.S. District Court in Connecticut a year ago. A second similar suit was filed shortly thereafter in federal court in New York.
