Civil Plaintiff
PAM Transport to Pay $4.75M Settlement in Wage Lawsuit
Thousands of drivers have reached a multimillion dollar settlement with PAM Transport in a wage lawsuit.
According to court documents filed on Aug. 5, a class of about 8,000 PAM Transport drivers have reached a settlement deal with the Tontitown, Ark.-based company. If approved by the court, those drivers will be entitled to a portion of the $4.75 million settlement.
In addition to the monetary settlement, PAM Transport “has agreed that it will modify certain payroll and employee advance policies such that employees will no longer be subject to deductions for escrow accounts, and will no longer be charged any amounts for requesting an advance on wages,” according to a plaintiffs brief.
