Two named plaintiffs claim in a proposed collective action that ground transportation company Chariots of Hire, Inc. and its owner are responsible for the non-payment of proper overtime wages. The lawsuit, which cites apparent Fair Labor Standards Act violations, claims the plaintiffs and proposed collective of limo drivers were not paid for all hours worked. Specifically, the case claims the defendants required drivers to be at the office one hour before their first scheduled pickup, yet did not pay the workers for this time. The plaintiff also claims drivers were paid no wages for, among other work activities, time spent driving back to the office or to their next pick-up location, or for time spent cleaning work vehicles.
