Ind. Gov't. - More on: Indiana OKs $8.5 million payout to some state workers

Updating this ILB entry from August 19th, that concluded:

Who is in the class? No easy answers. It is a subset of the people who worked 40 hours a week during the period from 1973 to 1993, those in a split job classification, where part of the members worked 37.5 hours and part worked 40 hours, but both received the same compensation. An example would be a clerk-typist who was forced to work 40 hours per week at one of the state institutions, while other clerk-typists in the same job classification at the Statehouse worked only 37.5 hours for the same pay.
Today the ILB received in the mail a "Court-Approved Notice and Claim Form Regarding Brattain, et al. v. Richmond State Hospital, et al." The claim is to be submiited by Nov. 1, 2008 to the Claims Administrator in Milwaukee, WI. If you are a member of the class and wish to object to the terms of the settlement, the notice provides that you must file with the Court no later than Oct. 17, 2008.

A website, hoursofworksettlement.com, is listed on the bottom of each page of the mailing.
