Workers at the company will be splitting $2 million between them. The sum is paltry compared to $56 million in fees awarded to Kirkland & Ellis, the law firm representing Toys ‘R’ Us.

A bankruptcy judge on Thursday approved the settlement to a class-action lawsuit filed on behalf of 33,000 former Toys ‘R’ Us workers which will see each of them receive about $60.
