So far, 262 current and former workers in Tyson have joined the lawsuit. Attorneys are seeking certification of the case as a class action to include all overtime-eligible Tyson workers.

The lawsuit follows the Supreme Court's Nov. 8, 2005 unanimous decision in "IBP Inc. v. Alvarez" that meat plant workers must be paid for time required to put on and remove protective clothing and safety gear, and for time required to walk to and from work stations.

About 800 workers at a Tyson plant in Pasco, Wash., began receiving checks last month from an $8.4 million settlement from the company.]]> http://www.poster4business.com/blog/2006/05/workers_sued_tyson_for_pay.html http://www.poster4business.com/blog/2006/05/workers_sued_tyson_for_pay.html Wed, 17 May 2006 21:56:30 -0800
