    Van Dusen owner-operator classification litigation

    Knight-Swift settled a class-action lawsuit alleging that roughly 20,000 owner-operator drivers had been misclassified as independent contractors, denied minimum-wage compensation under the Fair Labor Standards Act, and had related labor rights violated. The reported settlement amount was $100 million, with a December 14, 2019 deadline for claimants to file.
