Boeing Worker Drops Class Action Over Overtime Pay After Arbitration Pact Revealed

A Boeing worker in Washington state has voluntarily dismissed his proposed class action lawsuit against the aerospace giant. The lawsuit alleged that Boeing failed to include bonuses and other incentive pay in overtime and sick leave calculations.

The dismissal comes after Boeing produced an arbitration agreement that barred the employee from pursuing class claims in court. The agreement, which was not specified as being signed by the worker, allegedly prohibited him from bringing a class action lawsuit against the company.
