Arias v. Edward Produce Corp., et al
Filed: April 19, 2017 ◆§ 1:17-cv-02836
The two operating companies of produce delivery service Edward Produce and three individual owners are the defendants in a lawsuit filed by a former employee.
The two operating companies of produce delivery service Edward Produce and three individual owners are the defendants in a proposed class action lawsuit filed by a former truck driver. He claims he was not paid the proper minimum, overtime, and spread-of-hours wages in accordance with the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The suit argues that the plaintiff worked for more than 60 hours per week driving fresh produce to grocery stores throughout New York City and was not paid for all the hours he worked. He alleges that the defendants would illegally deduct $25 from his weekly pay if he did not “clock in” at the beginning of his shift, and that they did not compensate him for the time he spent working after his shift was scheduled to end. According to the complaint, the defendants’ pay practices caused the plaintiff’s wages to fall below the required minimum and overtime wages.
