US: Washington-based Summit Drywall has been ordered to pay US$550,000 in overtime, back wages and damages to nearly 400 workers to settle a lawsuit that was filed by the US Labour Department.

The Labour Department said that it had obtained a federal court consent judgement ordering Summit Drywall and its owner to pay the money to current and former employees. The department said that the company would pay US$275,000 in back wages and another US$275,000 in damages to workers who were illegally denied overtime from October 2009 to April 2013.

Around 380 workers will receive money. Investigators found that the workers were not compensated for all the hours they had worked.
