Corporate gym chain GoodLife Fitness has “systematically failed” to accurately compensate thousands of employees across Ontario for their hours of work and overtime, according to a new $60 million class-action lawsuit.

The suit makes numerous allegations against the fitness giant with 166 locations across the province — including that its policies “fail to appropriately compensate” employees and create “an unlawful barrier to payment of overtime.”

Chuck Tahirali, Senior HR Consultant at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP, joined host Tasha Kheiriddin on Global News Radio 640 Toronto to discuss the main issues at play in the class-action, and what employees can do if they feel that they are not being properly compensated for working overtime.
