Amazon agreed to pay $2 million to resolve claims it failed to provide meal and rest breaks to hourly employees in Washington.
The Amazon class action settlement benefits individuals who were employed by Amazon Retail LLC in Washington state in hourly positions between Oct. 3, 2021, and Oct. 27, 2025.
According to the class action lawsuit, Amazon failed to provide its hourly employees with rest and meal breaks as required by Washington law. As a result, employees were allegedly not compensated for all the wages they were owed.
The retail giant has not admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to a $2 million class action settlement to resolve the allegations.
Under the terms of the Amazon settlement, class members can receive a cash payment. Exact payments will vary depending on the number of participating class members and each class member’s wages during the class period.
Class members are guaranteed to receive at least $50 from the settlement. Higher wage earners will receive a larger share of the unpaid wages settlement fund.
The deadline for exclusion and objection is April 30, 2026.
The final approval hearing for the Amazon settlement is scheduled for May 22, 2026.
No claim form is required to benefit from the Amazon unpaid wages settlement. Class members who do not exclude themselves will automatically receive settlement benefits.
