The respective operating companies of Parts Authority and The Jordan Company, as well as four individuals, are the defendants in a proposed class action lawsuit that alleges violations of various wage and hour laws. The plaintiff supposedly worked as a “general laborer” for Parts Authority, which manufactures car and truck parts. He claims the defendants failed to pay him the required minimum and overtime wages and did not provide wage statements listing his hours and rates of pay. He regularly worked more than 40 hours per week, but was always paid a flat rate in cash at the end of each week, according to the suit. The plaintiff says that he is unaware of any timekeeping method used to track the hours he worked.

The suit claims Parts Authority systematically violates federal and state labor laws. According to the complaint, “since just 2013, Parts Authority has been sued at least 14 separate times for wage and hour violations brought by their employees.”
