National Class Action Lawsuit Filed

Kingsley & Kingsley, LLP; Rudy, Exelrod & Zieff, LLP; Altshuler Berzon LLP; Lewis, Feinberg, Lee, Renaker & Jackson, P.C.; Spiro Moss Barness LLP; Joseph & Herzfeld, LLP, are serving as plaintiffs' counsel in a federal class action lawsuit charging that Amgen Inc. has a common practice of refusing to pay overtime compensation to its pharmaceutical representatives -- including Specialty Sales Representatives, Professional Sales Representatives, Biopharmaceutical Specialists, Biopharmaceutical Representatives, Senior Biopharmaceutical Specialists, and Senior Biopharmaceutical Representatives -- in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The proposed class consists of approximately one thousand current and former pharmaceutical representatives employed by Amgen across America. The plaintiffs, Amgen employees who promoted pharmaceutical products to medical professionals, allege that Amgen unlawfully characterizes its employees as exempt in order to deprive them of overtime pay.

Current and former Amgen pharmaceutical representatives -- including Specialty Sales Representatives, Professional Sales Representatives, Biopharmaceutical Specialists, Biopharmaceutical Representatives, Senior Biopharmaceutical Specialists, and Senior Biopharmaceutical Representatives -- are encouraged to report their work experiences at Amgen.
