Overview
A class action settlement has been reached in a wage and hour dispute involving Herbert Malarkey Roofing Company. The lawsuit, filed on January 17, 2019, in Los Angeles County Superior Court, was brought by Edgar Rodriguez-Fonseca on behalf of current and former hourly employees who worked for the roofing company in California. The case centers on allegations related to employment practices and wage violations during the period from January 17, 2015, through the date of court approval of the settlement. The settlement applies to all hourly and non-exempt employees who worked for Herbert Malarkey Roofing Company in California during the class period.
Additionally, a separate group of workers—those employed between January 17, 2018, and the settlement approval date—are included under the Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA) provisions of the agreement. Compensation will be calculated based on each employee’s tenure with the company, with payments distributed according to the number of weeks worked during the relevant time periods. Class members have several options available to them. They may take no action and still receive a payment from the settlement fund.
Alternatively, they can choose to opt out of the settlement entirely, which would exclude them from any recovery but preserve their right to pursue individual claims. Class members also have the opportunity to object to the settlement if they believe it does not adequately address their concerns. The settlement requires court approval, and a hearing will be scheduled to finalize the agreement. Eligible workers should monitor the settlement website and official notices for specific claim deadlines, payment instructions, and additional details about their individual settlement amounts.
