Department of Labor sues El Azteca for failure to pay overtime

More than 100 employees are included. The lawsuit alleges failure to pay overtime and minimum wage in Fox Valley Wisconsin. This a common issue with restaurants because of the tip credit. Some restaurants think that just because employees are getting tips they don’t have to pay minimum wage or overtime. But if the tips plus wages don’t equal minimum wage and overtime if it was worked, the employee must be paid more. If this is happening to you, call us at 1-800-917-4000.
