LOS ANGELES – An investigation by the US Department of Labor has recovered more than $1 million in back wages and damages for 165 California garment workers after finding a Los Angeles textile contractor denied them overtime wages illegally and then tried to conceal the wage theft.
The investigations found that four Los Angeles sewing contractors - Good Cash and its associated entities Good Cash Inc., Premium Quality Apparel, and Premium Quality Apparel Inc., all of whom supplied the I Am Beyond yoga brand, were in violation of US labour laws.
