Ryder System agreed to pay $390,000 to resolve a class action lawsuit claiming it violated federal law by failing to provide sufficient COBRA notices.
The settlement benefits participants and beneficiaries of Ryder System’s health plan who were sent a COBRA notice by Ryder between Feb. 24, 2018, and Feb. 24, 2022, as a result of a qualifying event but did not elect continuation coverage. According to the settlement, there are 23,200 potential class members included under this definition.Â
According to the class action lawsuit, Ryder failed to adequately inform the plaintiff and other plan participants of their rights under the Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act (COBRA). As a result of insufficient notices, plan participants and beneficiaries allegedly failed to elect continuation coverage as allowed under federal law.Â
Ryder System offers many services to the transportation industry, including fleet management solutions, transportation solutions, supply chain solutions and more.
Ryder hasn’t admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to a $390,000 settlement to resolve the COBRA class action lawsuit.Â

6 thoughts onRyder System COBRA $390K class action settlement
I worked there 7 years and it was the worse experience of my life, working 6 to 7 day work weeks and 10 to 12 hour shifts, literally destroyed my back and wondered why I left.
I worked at Ryder for some time and I told them many of times about the work conditions there.
