Scooter Store sued by worker [View all]
A furloughed Scooter Store employee has sued the company, claiming it failed to give workers 60 days' notice before they were put on unpaid leave.
The federal suit filed Friday by Anna Urbina, who has worked as a “mobility specialist” since April, seeks certification as a class action so other Scooter Store employees can be included in the complaint.
Urbina alleges the Scooter Store was required, under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act, to provide at least 60 days' prior written notice of terminations.
Workers were notified they were placed on immediate furlough, or unpaid leave, late on March 8, in an email from CEO Martin “Marty” Landon. He instructed workers not to return to work unless they receive further notice from the company.
