OUR RECORDS INDICATE YOU WORK OR HAVE WORKED AT DYNAMIC MANUFACTURING, INC. IN THE STATE OF ILLINOIS. YOU MAY BE ENTITLED TO A PAYMENT FROM A CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT.

A court authorized this notice. You are not being sued. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.

  • A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit alleging that Defendant, Dynamic Manufacturing, Inc. (“Dynamic Manufacturing”), unlawfully possessed, collected, captured, stored, received, transmitted, converted, or otherwise obtained or disclosed its Illinois employees’ and temporary workers’ alleged Biometric Identifiers and/or Biometric Information through its finger clock-in system(s). Dynamic Manufacturing denies the claims in the lawsuit and contends that it did not do anything wrong and denies that class certification is warranted or appropriate.  The Court did not resolve the claims and defenses raised in this action.  Nor has the Court determined that Dynamic Manufacturing did anything wrong or that this matter should be certified as a class action except if the Settlement is fully approved by the Court. The parties have agreed to settle the dispute to avoid the cost and risk of a trial.
  • You are included if you worked or are currently working for Dynamic Manufacturing in the State of Illinois or you are a temporary worker who worked for Dynamic Manufacturing in Illinois and had your alleged Biometric Identifiers and/or Biometric Information collected or captured stored, possessed, received, transmitted, converted, or otherwise obtained or disclosed by Dynamic Manufacturing or its agent(s), vendor(s) or payroll provider(s) from February 3, 2016 to December 27, 2022, in connection with Dynamic Manufacturing timekeeping system(s) without first executing a written release.
  • If approved by the Court, a Gross Settlement Amount in the total amount of $1,826,400.00 will be established to pay all claims to the Settlement Class, including all notice and administration expenses, approved attorneys’ fees and costs, and an incentive award to the named plaintiff.  In addition, Dynamic Manufacturing has represented that it is in full compliance with the BIPA.
