May 21, 2024 -- A putative class and collective action lawsuit is pending against Horseshoe Baltimore Casino alleging it failed to pay its tipped and minimum wage employees properly under federal and state wage laws.  

​

The lawsuit seeks to recover unpaid wages for employees who worked at Horseshoe Baltimore Casino within the last three years.  Eligible persons who want to join this action can learn more and submit a Consent to Join form to participate in the litigation.

 

The complaint alleges that Horseshoe Baltimore Casino violated its employees’ rights by: (1) improperly “rounding” employees’ clock-in and clock-out times; (2) failing to inform tipped employees of the required tip credit provisions before paying less than the federal and state minimum wage; (3) creating a mandatory tip pooling policy by which it requires its table games dealers to pool their tips and then, in violation of federal law, distributing those tips to the table games dealers who earned them as well as to pay the PTO of certain non-tipped manager and supervisor employees; and (4) making improper deductions from employees' paychecks for gaming license fees. 

 

The case is Trento v. Caesars Baltimore Management Company LLC d/b/a Horseshoe Baltimore, No. 1:24-cv-01483-SAG, pending in the U.S. District Court, District of Maryland.
