BOWLING GREEN, KY – What started as an investigation of a single Bowling Green-based caregiving provider became a sweeping review of six other franchise locations across three states when investigators uncovered systemic violations by the employer.
In total, the investigations by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division led to the recovery of $201,356 in back wages for 320 workers. The employer also agreed to correct its non-compliant pay practices.
An initial investigation of Trusted Senior Care LLC – operator of Home Instead Senior Care in Bowling Green – found violations of the overtime and recordkeeping regulations of the Fair Labor Standards Act. When investigators became aware of the systemic nature of the violations, they expanded the investigation to include the six other Home Instead franchise locations in Alabama, Kentucky and Tennessee owned and operated by Brad Cannon.
