The former employee Benson is seeking to represent a class of former employees in the Enterprise Class Action Lawsuit.

Benson will likely receive a settlement after the lawsuit is filed. Whether he is successful in his lawsuit is an open question.
Settlement
A settlement of an Enterprise-class action lawsuit will help workers secure fair wages and benefits. The lawsuit, filed in 2011, is comprised of claims by about 3,100 former and current employees of Enterprise Rent-A-Car and affiliated companies. These employees claimed they were not compensated for work they performed off-the-clock. These activities included booting up computers, loading applications, closing them, and powering them down. According to the lawsuit, the company did not have a policy that required employees to work off the clock, and they were not paid overtime.
Damages sought
In the first complaint filed against Enterprise, the plaintiff claimed that the company had violated the Americans with Disabilities Act, 28 C.F.R. Part 36. The complainant was a person with a disability who requested a luxury class vehicle equipped with hand controls. In addition to this lawsuit, the United States received two other complaints against the company. Damages sought in an Enterprise-class action lawsuit could range from $100 to $1,000.

Defendants
A former employee of Enterprise has filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of hundreds of similarly situated former employees, alleging that the company failed to provide advance notice of layoffs required under the WARN Act. The company has not responded to HR Dive’s request for comment. Regardless of what the legal claim alleges, the company will be held accountable for the actions of its co-defendants.
Lead plaintiff
The lead plaintiff is a member of the class who is more involved in the lawsuit’s inner workings. They are often involved in the discovery stage when they must produce evidence and consult with attorneys and witnesses. Lead plaintiffs may also be present at depositions and hearings. In some instances, a lead plaintiff may be the only class member present during the lawsuit. The lead plaintiff will be involved in all aspects of the case, including trial preparation.
Defendants’ response to the settlement
Defendants’ response to a settlement in an Enterprise Class Action Lawsuit typically involves a written release from each receiving monetary relief. Such releases can be attached to notice materials or attached to the actual settlement. The Commission’s policy on release requests is outlined in section IV.A.2.d. Releases cannot condition monetary relief on the release of claims beyond the complaint or the promise not to seek employment with the defendant. The release must also be stated in the decree itself and is only effective if the settlement is approved.
