Schlumberger: Agrees To Pay $1.35M To End Wage Suit
A group of mostly former Schlumberger equipment operators and trainees on Friday asked a federal court to sign off on a $1.35 million deal to settle their lawsuit accusing the company of cheating them out of wages.
The plaintiffs said that they have come to an agreement with Schlumberger Technology Corp. and Schlumberger Ltd. to settle the lawsuit that alleged the company violated the Fair Labor Standards Act by paying equipment operators and trainees under the “fluctuating workweek” method.
