April Shakoor-Delgado's lawsuit against Fairway Independent Mortgage Corp. alleges violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act by failing to pay overtime and reimburse work-related expenses.
The suit emphasizes that Fairway's employment requirements for high-speed internet, a dedicated office space, and unlimited cell phone data were for the company's benefit, ultimately shifting costs onto employees.
Shakoor claims to have incurred $3,600 in out-of-pocket expenses due to Fairway's requirements, which she argues violates Illinois' minimum wage law and federal regulations.
This suit represents a collective action, reflecting broader issues among loan officers regarding unpaid overtime and reimbursement for necessary work-related expenses.
