NOTICE OF CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT AND HEARING DATE FOR FINAL COURT APPROVAL
Fox et al. v. Verkada Inc., San Mateo Superior Court, Case No. 23-CIV-00193
If you were employed at Verkada Inc. between January 17, 2019 and February 25, 2024, this proposed class-action settlement may affect your rights and you may be eligible to receive a monetary settlement payment.
Plaintiffs and Class Representatives (“Plaintiffs”) and Verkada Inc. (“Verkada”) have reached a settlement in a class action lawsuit entitled Fox et al. v. Verkada Inc., pending in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Mateo, Case No. 23-CIV-00193 (the “Action”). In the Action, the Plaintiffs, former Verkada employees who worked in certain sales-related roles. allege, among other things, that Verkada misclassified them as exempt from overtime under California and federal law (the “FLSA”) and failed to pay them overtime for overtime hours worked. Plaintiffs also claimed that Verkada failed to provide them with all meal and rest breaks and failed to reimburse them for reasonably necessary business expenses under California law. Plaintiffs sought to recover unpaid overtime wages, unpaid premium pay for missed breaks, statutory penalties, civil penalties under the California Private Attorneys General Act (“PAGA”), and other related relief on behalf of themselves and others, including yourself.
Verkada denies all liability in this Action, denies that any of Plaintiffs’ claims have merit, and denies that a class, collective, or representative action is proper for any purpose other than settlement. Plaintiffs and Verkada recognize the costs and risks of litigation and believe that the proposed Settlement is a fair and reasonable resolution.
