Laughlin - FLSA Entitlement File: B-170264 Date: September 22, 1986 DIGEST Electronics Maintenance Technician employed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) claims additional Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) compensation. The employee's original entitlement was based on an administrative compromise settle- ment of an action filed by similarly situated employees. Employee's claim is denied in the absence of evidence that the FAA acted unreasonably in its implementation of the compromise settlement for claimant here and the other 3,000 similarly situated employees. Further, employee has not met his burden of proof to show that meal and sleep periods were not bona fide. DECISION This decision is in response to an appeal by Mr. Paul E. Laughlin, an employee of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), from the amount awarded him for overtime compensa- tion. For the reasons that follow, Mr. Laughlin's claim is denied. BACKGROUND In our decision Paul E. Laughlin, B-170264, September 28, 1982, we held that Mr. Laughlin was entitled to overtime compensation under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), 29 U.S.C. SS 201 et seq., retroactive to May 1, 1974. Thus, we remanded his cTaim to the FAA for calculation of the amount due. The FAA did so and now Mr. Laughlin protests the findings, the determination as to the hours worked, and the gross amounts due.
