Overtime Gaps Across 5 Franchises
Workers at five Wingstop franchise locations were not properly compensated for overtime hours. Under FLSA, employees working over 40 hours per week must receive time-and-a-half pay.
Systematic Underpayment
550 workers were affected by the overtime gaps. The systematic nature of the underpayment across all five locations indicated a policy-level gap rather than isolated incidents.
DOL Investigation
The U.S. Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division investigated the franchisee's payroll practices and discovered widespread overtime gaps.
$1.7 Million Settlement
The franchisee agreed to pay $1.7 million to settle the claims, covering back wages and damages for all 550 affected workers across the five Bakersfield locations.
