MAPEI BIPA Settlement
Torres v. MAPEI Corporation
Case No. 2021L000229
If you worked at MAPEI Corporation’s facility in the state of Illinois between February 22, 2016 and February 22, 2021, and used an ADP finger-scan timekeeping device during your employment without first providing consent, you may be entitled to a payment from a class action settlement.
This lawsuit alleges that MAPEI violated BIPA through the use of its ADP finger-scan timekeeping device. MAPEI denies the claims in the lawsuit and contends that it did not do anything wrong and denies that class certification is warranted or appropriate. The Court did not resolve the claims and defenses raised in this action. Nor has the Court determined that MAPEI did anything wrong or that this matter should be certified as a class action except if the Settlement is fully approved by the Court. Rather, the Parties have, without admitting liability, agreed to settle the lawsuit to avoid the uncertainties and expenses associated with ongoing litigation.
