How are employees protected from retaliation from EG&G?
Under both the Fair Labor Standards Act and Utah labor laws, it is unlawful for EG&G to retaliate against any employee who pursues their legal rights. The FLSA and Utah law make it unlawful to retaliate against an employee for asserting a claim for overtime. In fact, under Utah law, retaliation by an employer against an employee for exercising his or her right to be paid for unpaid wages is a crime. Any retaliation by EG&G against an employee would also create additional legal claims by the adversely affected employee against EG&G and/or the EG&G employee(s) who are responsible for the retaliation, including possible claims for wrongful termination. If you believe that EG&G has retaliated against you because you have joined this lawsuit, or have expressed an interest in this lawsuit, or simply because you have questioned whether you are entitled to overtime pay, you should contact Class Counsel immediately.
