A home health aide has filed suit against Prima Home Health, Inc. and one individual owner over allegedly unpaid time-and-a-half overtime wages.

The plaintiff alleges he worked between 60 and 75 hours or more each week for the defendants but only received his straight rate of pay for all overtime hours worked. Arguing that the defendants’ alleged FLSA violations were willful, the lawsuit points out Prima Home Health “posted and displayed a Department of Labor posters [sic] at Defendants’ place of business explicitly stating that non-exempt employees are entitled to time-and-one-half overtime compensation.”
