RCH Lawn Maintenance LLC (which was formerly known as L.G. Property Maintenance, Inc.) and an individual with control over the business are facing a proposed collective action filed by a former employee who claims he was denied overtime wages for time spent traveling to and from job sites. The plaintiff, who was employed as a lawn maintenance worker, says he worked for the defendants between 45 and 63.5 hours per week. According to the complaint, the hours he worked above 40 each week were spent traveling to and from job sites and the defendant’s main location. He claims he was not paid any wages at all for these hours when he should have received time-and-a-half overtime pay, as mandated by the Fair Labor Standards Act.
