Queens, New York-based Highbury Concrete Inc. and its three owners are the defendants in a proposed class and collective action filed by three former employees who claim they were not paid proper overtime wages. The lawsuit says the plaintiffs, who were employed as pump operators and tool and supply drivers, routinely worked between 75 and 80 hours per week for most of their employment without being paid at the time-and-a-half hourly overtime rate. The case additionally claims that the defendants failed to pay proposed class members spread-of-hours wages, which are owed in New York for shifts that last longer than 10 hours in a day.
