FELDMAN FOX & MORGADO, PA ANNOUNCES INVESTIGATION INTO UNFAIR EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES AT KANES FURNITURE.
Our investigation to date has revealed allegations that salespersons (known at Kane's as a "consultant") are either paid on an hourly basis or commission basis depending on if they meet their sales quota of about $42,000.00 per month. If a Kane's employee fails to meet their $42,000.00 quota, they do not receive their commissions and instead are paid only for their hourly time at minimum wage. And even though consultants are regularly working more than 40 hours per week (some as much as 80 hours in a week), these consultants are only being paid for 40 hours of work. This practice is sometimes known as "rolling time cards."
If you have information about Kane's rolling employees hours back to 40 hours, despite working more than 40 hours in a week, Feldman Fox & Morgado is interested in hearing from you. Please contact Attorney Dale J. Morgado at 813-902-3186 or dmorgado@ffmlawgroup.com
If you are a current or former employee of Kanes and would like to discuss this case and, please contact us. REMEMBER, IT IS UNLAWFUL UNDER THE FLSA FOR ANY EMPLOYER TO RETALIATE AGAINST AN EMPLOYEE MAKING A CLAIM UNDER THE FLSA OR ASSERTING THEIR RIGHTS, INCLUDING JOINING A COLLECTIVE ACTION. ANY EMPLOYER WHO TAKES RETALIATORY ACTION SUCH AS DEMOTION, TERMINATION, HARASSMENT OR CAUSES YOU TO SUFFER AN ADVERSE EMPLOYMENT ACTION CAN BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE UNDER THE FLSA. Names of current employees can in preliminary stages remain concealed and undisclosed to Kanes.
