The US Department of Labor investigation found the Indianapolis healthcare staffing provider paid straight time for all hours worked and did not pay non-exempt hourly employees the correct overtime wage of time and one-half for hours over 40 in a workweek. The company also failed to maintain accurate payroll records to show the correct overtime premium pay for non-exempt employees. The investigation by the department’s Wage and Hour Division recovered $86,808, including $43,404 in back wages and an equal amount in liquidated damages, for 127 skilled healthcare professionals assigned to work at hospitals and specialty care facilities.
