Issues: Untimely Wages, Unpaid Overtime

On October 25, 2024, Fitapelli & Schaffer, LLP filed a class and collective action lawsuit against MedRite, LLC and Staffing Boutique, Inc. (“MedRite”). The lawsuit claims that MedRite failed to pay proper wages in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) and New York Labor Law (“NYLL”), including unpaid minimum wages, overtime pay, and failure to pay manual workers on a weekly basis as required by the NYLL.

The lawsuit also alleges that MedRite failed to provide accurate wage statements, as required by law, which prevented employees from verifying their pay. Additionally, some employees experienced delays in payment for their final weeks of work, leaving them without compensation for hours worked.

Affected workers may include all current and former hourly workers who worked for MedRite in New York since August 26, 2017, including generalists and similarly situated hourly positions.

The lawsuit seeks to recover damages for unpaid wages, liquidated damages, and other relief due to MedRite’s alleged violations of wage and hour laws.

If you worked for MedRite or a similar company in the healthcare or staffing industry, make sure you are receiving proper wages as required under the FLSA and NYLL. Unfortunately, wage violations are common in these industries.
