A Miami-Dade company just paid $201,000 in back pay. And, it might owe you money, too

A Miami-Dade restoration and remediation company that violated U.S. labor law in several ways has paid $201,508 in back pay to 141 workers, the Department of Labor announced.

And the department’s Wage and Hour Division investigators are looking for more former workers who ServPro might owe.

“ServPro” is the name under which Restoration Management 2013, run out of Southwest Miami-Dade by Miles Early, did business in Boynton Beach. Anyone who worked for ServPro from March 2017 through February of this year should call Wage and Hour’s Miami District Office at 305-598-6607. You might be owed money because:

ServPro paid workers in straight cash, and at straight time rates, no overtime, no matter how many hours worked.

ServPro automatically knocked time off time cards for meals whether or not the worker toiled through the meal break.

ServPro didn’t keep accurate payroll records, an uncommon violation for a company that pays so many of its employees by the hour, but a common one in companies caught shorting worker pay.
