WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court has agreed to weigh new limits on the ability of workers to band together to dispute pay and workplace issues.
The justices said June 8 they will review a $5.8 million class-action judgment against Tyson Foods Inc. over the pay for more than 3,000 workers at its Storm Lake, Iowa, pork processing plant.
The case could allow the high court to elaborate on its 2011 decision blocking a massive sex-discrimination case against Wal-Mart Stores Inc. that would have included up to 1.6 million female workers. . .
