This case involves a lawsuit by Joél Johnson against RGIS Inventory Specialists alleging violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) regarding unpaid overtime and minimum wages. Johnson, an auditor, claimed she was not compensated for travel time, 'wait time' (arriving early at meet sites or inventories, and waiting for company transportation), and time spent donning and doffing equipment. RGIS sought summary judgment, arguing these activities were non-compensable preliminary or postliminary activities or de minimis. The court granted summary judgment in part, denying claims related to general travel time, wait time incidental to company transportation, and doffing. However, it denied summary judgment for claims concerning work performed while traveling after March 2004, wait time prior to an inventory, and donning equipment, finding genuine issues of material fact.
