Abstract

The article discusses several class action lawsuits in America which deal with the contention that cosmetology schools owe student workers at least minimum wage compensation as of 2015, and it mentions how a U.S. federal court in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania granted summary judgments for the Jean Madeline Aveda Institute cosmetology school after applying an economic realities test to the facts in student worker wages case. Employment laws such as the U.S. Fair Labor Standards Act are examined.
