A Sacramento attorney has filed a class action in U.S. District Court in Sacramento against German industrial giant Siemens involving wage-and-hour violations against hundreds of current and former employees owed more than $10 million.
Most of the 300 to 600 proposed class members are current or former non-exempt employees at the Siemens Rail Systems manufacturing plant on French Road in Sacramento. Sacramento resident Jarrid Whitley is the lead plaintiff. He used to work at the local plant as a fitter/welder.
