When employment-related disputes are resolved through settlements or other enforcement actions, it is essential that all parties receive handling that ensures final resolution. BrownGreer’s experience as a third-party administrator is regularly called upon to ensure such programs with efficiency and finality.
A few of these programs include:
CBP Global Settlement
We served as Administrator in a settlement program reached by the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs and Border Protection and the National Treasury Employees Union to resolve certain grievances filed by NTEU, including a 25,000-member class and $184 million in distributed funds.
United States v. National Treasury Employees Union, No. 93-1170 (D.C App.).
We served as Trustee of the Settlement Trust in a class action settlement between a federal employees’ union and the U.S. Government for back payment of wages. A total of $173 million was distributed among 212,000 Class Members.
Veterans Affairs Overtime Settlement
We serve as Notice and Settlement Administrator in a $130 million settlement with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to resolve of overtime claims on behalf of 15,000 nurse practitioners and physicians’ assistants.
