Novant Health Wage & Hour Class Action Settlement
See Details
Proof Required?
Novant Health has agreed to pay $750,000 to settle a class action lawsuit alleging that its timeclock rounding policy caused hourly employees to be underpaid for overtime. The lawsuit, known as Corley v. Novant Health, claims that the way Novant Health rounded employee clock-in and clock-out times systematically shorted workers out of wages they rightfully earned — particularly overtime pay under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
If you worked as an hourly employee for Novant Health during the relevant period and were subject to this timeclock rounding policy, you may be entitled to a share of the settlement fund. The deadline to file a claim is July 10, 2026, so it's worth taking a few minutes to see if you qualify.
Timeclock rounding cases like this one are common in healthcare and other industries where employees frequently clock in and out at irregular times. The core argument is that when rounding always favors the employer — or does so disproportionately — workers end up being paid for less time than they actually worked. This settlement gives affected Novant Health employees a chance to recover some of those lost wages.
Who Is Eligible?
You may be eligible to file a claim if you:
- You worked for Novant Health as an hourly (non-exempt) employee during the covered period
- You were subject to Novant Health's timeclock rounding policy that affected how your hours were calculated
- You may have been underpaid for overtime as a result of how clock-in and clock-out times were rounded
- You worked at a Novant Health facility during the relevant timeframe specified in the settlement agreement
- Note: Specific employment date ranges have not been publicly confirmed — check the official settlement documents or use Class Action Buddy for the latest eligibility details
How Much Can You Get?
The total settlement fund is $750,000, which will be divided among all eligible employees who submit valid claims. Individual payout amounts will depend on how many people file claims and how many hours each person worked during the covered period — employees who worked more hours or more overtime may receive a larger share.
Because the per-person payout depends on total claim volume, exact amounts aren't available yet. However, wage and hour settlements like this one typically distribute payments based on each claimant's share of total worked hours. Filing a claim costs you nothing, so it's worth submitting one if you believe you qualify.

When employers round clock-in and clock-out times in a way that consistently benefits the company rather than the employee, it can violate the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Novant Health agreed to a $750,000 settlement to resolve these claims without admitting wrongdoing.

Individual payment amounts aren't confirmed yet. The total fund is $750,000, and your share will likely be based on how many hours you worked during the covered period relative to other claimants. Employees who worked more hours or overtime may receive a larger payment. After attorney fees and administration costs are deducted, the remaining amount is split among eligible claimants who filed valid claims.
