Comment on Chipotle owes overtime pay to thousands: lawsuit

A lawsuit filed against Chipotle on Wednesday claims that a federal rule expanding overtime pay to millions of workers is in effect, despite an injunction late last year that banned the Labor Department from enforcing the regulation.The proposed class-action lawsuit, which was filed in the U.S. District Court in New Jersey, says Chipotle should be paying time and a half to employees who work more than 40 hours a week and earn less than $47,476 a year — as would be required by the rule.
