The Mount Airy lawsuit has grown to 75 plaintiffs.
The 75th person was added to the federal class-action lawsuit against Mount Airy Casino Resort in an April 9 filing.
Mount Airy was sued on Feb. 7 by two former employees who said the casino violated the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Pennsylvania Minimum Wage Act and the Wage Payment Collection Act.
Their lawsuit said that Mount Airy failed to properly notify employees about the tip credit that allows employers to offer a sub-minimum wage rate on the premise that tips could match it.
Mount Airy was also accused of using table game dealers’ tip pool money to pay all of the paid time off for dual-rate supervisors, who act as both dealers and floor supervisors.
