The U.S. Department of Labor has recovered $54,185 in back wages for 54 workers after an investigation revealed that Teijin Automotive Technologies Inc. failed to issue paychecks between March and August 2023. The Wage and Hour Division found that the company violated overtime and minimum wage provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act.
“No employer should need to be reminded to issue paychecks to workers for their hard-earned wages,” said Wage and Hour District Director Matthew Utley in Columbus, Ohio. “Workers who believe they are owed unpaid wages are asked to reach out to the Wage and Hour Division through the Workers Owed Wages website to receive the pay due to them.”
Teijin Automotive Technologies Inc., headquartered in Auburn Hills, Michigan, manufactures structural plastic products including body panels, closures, pickup boxes, structural components, and sub-assemblies.
