Georgia-Pacific Wood Products, LLC and Georgia-Pacific, LLC are the defendants in a lawsuit filed by an employee who claims he has not been paid for all time worked and is being shorted on overtime wages.

According to the proposed collective and class action, the plaintiff began working as a laborer at the defendants’ Gurdon, Arkansas manufacturing facility in October 2014. The man charges that the companies’ time-keeping system rounds logged hours in their favor, resulting in unpaid work. The lawsuit adds that the defendants allegedly miscalculated overtime pay rates by failing to include shift differentials in employees’ regular rates of pay.
