- Abstract
The article presents practical advice for American employers on how to avoid an apparent flood of class action/representative action wage and hour lawsuits as of June 2014, focusing on suggestions for drafting mandatory arbitration policies with class/representative action waiver provisions. The U.S. Federal Arbitration Act and the practical economics of wage and hour legal claims are mentioned, along with several U.S. Supreme Court cases. America's Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is examined.
