Marriott COBRA Notice Class Action Investigation
Investigating a class action lawsuit on behalf of former employees of Marriott. Department of Labor regulations mandate that when a company employing more than 20 individuals on single day terminates an employee that company must send the employee a COBRA notice. COBRA is a government health insurance plan that is an alternative to the Marketplace and is typically provided for unemployed individuals or entrepreneurs. When a company fires an employee, the company must inform the employee of how to opt into COBRA, how much the plan will cost per month, and when the employee’s existing health insurance coverage will stop. A recent report indicates that Marriott fired its employees and sent them a COBRA notice lacking both an indication who the administrator of COBRA was and the date by which the employee had to opt into COBRA. Both failures violate Department of Labor regulation. If you were let go from employment at Marriott, please contact us. |
