Attorney General Brian L. Schwalb today announced that the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) successfully resolved two separate investigations into suspected workplace rights violations involving the use of unlawful training repayment agreement provisions—known as TRAPs—that harmed nurses at George Washington University Hospital (GWU Hospital) and preschool teachers at The Hill Preschool.
“These TRAP agreements restricted the job mobility of nurses and preschool teachers, financially penalizing them for choosing to change jobs,” said Attorney General Brian Schwalb. “The Office of the Attorney General will continue to fight to make sure that workers’ rights are protected and that law-abiding businesses can compete on a level playing field.”
