A former employee of RKP Service, Inc. (which does business as Rainbow Car Wash) has filed suit against the company and two individuals with control of the business over claims that the parties violated several provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act and the New York Labor Law. The plaintiff says he was employed by the defendants as a laborer between November 2013 and May 2015 and routinely worked more than 40 – and many times up to 96 – hours per week without receiving proper overtime wages. The plaintiff further alleges that the defendants were not entitled to take a tip credit from his wages because they failed to provide notification of the tip credit and unlawfully retained a portion of his tips.
On top of that, the complaint claims the defendants unlawfully neglected to provide the plaintiff with spread-of-hours pay and proper wage statements in accordance with state law.
