Published 4.25.2008 PrintingForLess ordered to pay worker overtime wages By Peter Vandergrift, Enterprise Staff Writer In an April 18 Montana Department of Labor and Industry decision, more than $16,000 was awarded to a former PrintingForLess employee from the company. The case centered around whether a technical service representative, a widely held position at PFL, was exempt from being paid overtime wages. PFL claimed that a TSR fell under a professional and administrative federal law exemption, and it did not have to pay time-and-a-half overtime wages. Former employee Julia Kenny challenged the no-overtime policy and received a favorable ruling at a Department of Labor hearing, official documents stated. In a response crafted by PFL media contact Danton Rice, the Livingston-based online printing company vowed to appeal the ruling of what it labeled a “nuisance claim.” An appeal would be heard in District Court in Livingston and could be appealed all the way to the Montana Supreme Court. If the ruling is not overturned, other TSRs could file claims for overtime pay, Kenny’s lawyer, Paul Grigsby, said Thursday. “PFL continues to be the proud employer of over 200 great people, and expects that as we continue to grow, we will be the target of future nuisance claims,” a statement released by the company stated. --Former Employee
