Dallas Lawsuits Question Labor Demands of Email and Cellphones

The current and former T-Mobile employees say they were required to use company-issued smart phones to respond to work-related messages, including customer complaints, after hours without pay, said Weinberg Law Firm, Labor Lawyer Dallas. When the workers reported the hours to management of the cellphone company, the lawsuit says, the employees were told nothing could be done and they should expect to work extra hours as part of T-Mobile's "standard business practices."
