K.C. Beauty Corp Bloom Spa (which does business as Bloom Hair and Nails Spa) and two individual owners are facing a proposed collective action filed by an employee who claims the defendants violated federal and state labor laws. The plaintiff, who is employed as a nail tech and masseur, says he routinely works more than 40 hours per week without receiving overtime pay. He further claims that the defendants are not entitled to take a tip credit from his wages because they failed to provide him notice of the tip credit and do not maintain a record of customer tips. According to the complaint, the defendants deduct $15 in tips from the plaintiff’s wages every day and are allegedly still in possession of a gold bracelet given to him by a customer in exchange for his services. 

On top of that, the suit argues that the defendants deny the plaintiff spread-of-hours wages and fail to provide accurate wage statements/notices in accordance with the New York Labor Law.
