Labor economics lies at the heart of many high-stakes legal disputes and policy decisions. Vega Economics offers deep expertise in this field, applying rigorous empirical and theoretical analysis to questions involving employment, compensation, discrimination, and labor market dynamics.

Our experts provide insights grounded in academic research and real-world labor practices. They are experienced in matters involving wage and hour disputes, labor market competition, executive compensation, wrongful termination, collective bargaining, and employment discrimination.

We support clients in both litigation and regulatory contexts, including:

  • Class action wage and hour claims (e.g., FLSA, state labor law)
  • Pay equity and gender/race-based discrimination analyses
  • Labor market definition and monopsony power in antitrust matters
  • Economic damages related to employment disputes

Recently, Vega Economics was retained in a high-profile employment litigation matter where plaintiffs alleged race discrimination, disparate treatment, disparate impact, hostile work environment and unlawful retaliation.

Whether the matter requires a careful econometric study of wage disparities or expert testimony on employment trends, Vega Economics delivers sophisticated labor economic analysis tailored to the demands of litigation and regulatory review.
