Security staffing firm GuardNow, Inc. is facing its second proposed class action in less than a week, with this latest suit alleging the company and its top official failed to pay security officers proper minimum and overtime wages. Filed by seven former employees who worked for GuardNow from October until December 2016, the lawsuit claims security officers routinely worked more than 40 hours per week without receiving time-and-a-half hourly overtime pay. The complaint further alleges that on more than one occasion the defendant issued the plaintiffs checks that bounced, while other times, the case continues, proposed class members received no checks at all for their work.
