AG: State of Louisiana agrees to over $1M settlement with Walmart over delivery service
Summary
Attorney General Liz Murrill announced that Louisiana reached an over $1 million settlement with Walmart to resolve claims that the company deceived Spark Driver gig workers and customers by misrepresenting base pay, incentive pay, and tip amounts, and by altering offers after drivers accepted them. The settlement prohibits Walmart from modifying pay or tip offers after they are made, except under limited circumstances, and bans misrepresenting earnings information. It also requires Walmart to implement an earnings verification program to ensure drivers receive the pay and tips they were promised.
