A former delivery worker is behind a proposed class action against the owners and operators of New York City eatery Royal Pizza over its allegedly illegal employment and wage practices. Filed in New York district court, the lawsuit claims the defendants ostensibly hired the plaintiff as a delivery worker even though the man was then required to spend several hours each day performing non-delivery-related tasks around the restaurant. According to the suit, the plaintiff is owed unpaid overtime (time-and-a-half for all hours worked over 40 in a week), as well as unpaid minimum wages and spread-of-hours pay for shifts that lasted longer than 10 hours in a day.
The plaintiff alleges the defendants “disguised” his actual work duties to avoid paying him at the proper wage rate, specifically to justify compensating him at the lower tip-credit hourly rate.
