A group of exotic dancers at several clubs in the San Fernando Valley of California brought a class action suit against their employers, the club owners, for the following violations of labor law:
• The failure to provide meal breaks
• The failure to provide rest breaks
• Club managers taking 50 percent of the dancers' tips, which resulted in some dancers earning less than the minimum wage for hours worked
• The failure to reimburse dancers for the costs of their uniforms
The club owners acknowledge that the dancers worked over 40 hours each week but that they were professionals and not subject to the provisions of the FLSA. The club owners also claim that the dancers work on a type of commission basis and so are not covered by the minimum wage law. Are there labor law violations going on at the clubs? Are you able to respond to the defenses that the club owners raised?
