Tristar Plumbing Supply Inc., Long River International Group (USA) Inc., Logo Mechanical Inc., and five individual owners are on the receiving end of a proposed class and collective action alleging they failed to pay their employees proper wages and provide them with required wage documents. The plaintiff in the case says he was employed as a warehouse worker, loader, and driver for the defendants’ two warehouse locations and worked approximately 63 hours per week without receiving overtime wages. He argues that the defendants frequently adjusted his timesheets to give the appearance that they were complying with federal and state overtime regulations while neglecting to pay him for all the hours he worked. The suit further claims that employees like the plaintiff were paid less than minimum wage and were denied required wage statements and notices to which they were entitled under the New York Labor Law.
