Biggest hospitals in Mass. face labor suits – The Boston

Biggest hospitals in Mass. face labor suits: The Boston Globe reported today that a Rochester, NY law firm says it has signed up about 500 hourly employees for a suit against 5 of Massachusetts’ largest hospital chains, alleging that the workers, who are not paid for 30 minute lunch breaks, are being expected to work for at least part of those breaks. The article notes that despite the small amount of time involved on a per-employee per-day basis, the total unpaid compensations claims could be in the tens of millions.
