(“Teva”) on behalf of thirteen (13) former employees, alleging breach of contract and violation of the Pennsylvania Wage Payment and Collection Law (“WPCL”). The thirteen (13) long serviced employees were terminated on February 3, 2019 following Teva’s decision to contract their duties to another company.
