Pennsylvania Court Confirms Workers Must Sue Within Three Years to Recover Unpaid Wages

On October 21, 2026, the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania ruled that a three-year statute of limitations applied to a lawsuit brought on behalf of a group of employees against two pharmacies over unpaid overtime wages. Quick Hits In Commonwealth Department of Labor and Industry v.
