HOUSTON — Houston-based Duron Tech is facing a class action suit alleging it failed to properly compensate workers, including not paying overtime.
Juan Perez, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, filed a complaint May 7 in the Houston Division of the Southern District of Texas against Duron Tech LLC alleging violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act.
Perez worked for Duron Tech as a welder, helper and fitter at the company's metal fabrication and mechanical tech support operation in Houston. He alleges he regularly worked up to and in excess of 40 to 50 hours per week and that he and other workers were not paid "regular pay" or paid for working overtime.
Perez seeks monetary relief, trial by jury, interest and all other just relief. He is represented by Alfonso Kenndard, Jr., of Kenndard Richard PC in Houston.
