Philly Judge Awards PA Wal-Mart Workers $62 Million More - 10/05/07By Doug Cunningham A Philadelphia judge is awarding current and former Wal-Mart workers in Pennsylvania $62 million more in damages because Wal-Mart didn’t pay them for off-the-clock work and missed rest breaks. The jury found Wal-Mart required workers to work without pay by directing them not to record all their hours on the companies computerized pay system.Last year a jury in the case awarded $78.5 million to Wal-Mart workers. The jury found that by cheating workers out of their paid breaks and forcing them to work off the clock, Wal-Mart saved more than $49 million. Wal-Mart | Posted 10/04/2007 - 5:51pm | 379 reads
