W.B. Mason agreed to a $5.65 million settlement to resolve a class action lawsuit claiming it failed to provide commissioned sales representatives with notice the company was changing commission terms.
The settlement benefits three classes: the New Jersey Class, the New York Class and the Pennsylvania Class.
The New Jersey Class includes individuals who worked for W.B. Mason as a commissioned sales representative based or working in New Jersey since April 2, 2015.
The New York Class includes individuals who worked for W.B. Mason as a commissioned sales representative based or working in New York since April 2, 2015.
The Pennsylvania Class includes individuals who worked for W.B. Mason as a commissioned sales representative based or working in Pennsylvania since April 28, 2017.
Plaintiffs in the class action lawsuit claim that W.B. Mason violated state laws by failing to give proper notice that it was changing the terms of sales representative commission plans. This allegedly breached written contracts and resulted in unpaid commissions.
W.B. Mason is a workplace product distributor that sells office supplies and more through sales representatives.
W.B. Mason hasn’t admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to a $5.65 million settlement to resolve the commission class action lawsuit.
Under the terms of the settlement, sales representatives can receive a proportional cash payment based on the number of workweeks they worked during the class period. Mailed notices to class members included an estimated workweek count.
No payment estimates are available because final payment amounts will vary depending on the number of participating class members.
The deadline for exclusion and objection is May 23, 2023.
The final approval hearing for the settlement is scheduled for July 20, 2023.
Class members have until May 8, 2023, to challenge the number of eligible work weeks assigned to them by the settlement administrator.
In order to receive settlement benefits, class members must submit a valid claim form by May 23, 2023.
