KIRYAS JOEL — The U.S. Department of Labor filed a federal complaint this week against a Monroe company, accusing it of violating minimum wage and overtime laws, as well as failing to keep records of employees' hours, pay rates and earnings.
The Department of Labor seeks a court order finding the Hatzlucha Meat Market Inc. and its officers, Abraham Schlesinger and Yitzchok Tyrnauer, liable for the unpaid compensation, according to documents filed Monday in Federal Court in White Plains.
A call to the company Friday afternoon was not returned.
The Labor Department found Hatzlucha's operators “willfully and repeatedly” violated labor laws, in that company records failed to accurately reflect “the hours worked each workday, the total hours worked each work week, the regular rate of pay, the total earnings for each work week, and/or the total compensation for each work week with respect to many of their employees.”
