Garden Organic Dry Cleaners Inc. (which does business as Garden Cleaners) and two individuals with control of the business are facing a collective action filed by a former employee who claims the defendant failed to pay him proper overtime wages. The plaintiff says he worked at the dry cleaner ironing clothing and was regularly required to work beyond his scheduled hours without compensation. He claims he worked more than 40 hours per week, but did not receive time-and-a-half overtime wages as mandated by state and federal law. The suit further argues that the defendants failed to maintain proper records of employees’ hours and denied them required wage statements.
