Honda Employee Succeeds in Lawsuit Over Unpaid Overtime Following Kronos Outage

A Honda worker's lawsuit alleging delayed overtime pay following the 2021 Kronos outage can proceed, a federal judge ruled. The employee claimed Honda's U.S. division violated the Fair Labor Standards Act and state laws. The company had offered affected employees a $1,000 interest-free loan and implemented a new pay method, but the plaintiff disputed the amounts provided. Honda paid the plaintiff for all hours claimed, but the judge denied the company's motion for summary judgment on excessive delay claims.
