Ceron De Orozco v. Flagship Facility Services, Inc.

Worker Claims Unpaid Wages from Cleaning Company

Ceron De Orozco filed a lawsuit against Flagship Facility Services, Inc., a cleaning and maintenance company, claiming the employer failed to pay proper wages. The case was filed in December 2020 and involved allegations of wage theft under the Fair Labor Standards Act, which is the federal law that sets minimum wage and overtime requirements.

The worker claimed that Flagship Facility Services violated wage and hour laws, though the specific details of what wages were allegedly unpaid are not available from the court records. This type of case typically involves disputes over unpaid overtime, minimum wage violations, or off-the-clock work.

The court's final decision in this case is not available from the provided information, so it's unclear whether the worker won or lost, or if the case was settled.

What this means for workers: This case shows that employees can file federal lawsuits when they believe their employer has not paid them properly. The Fair Labor Standards Act gives workers the right to recover unpaid wages, and facility services workers—like janitors and maintenance staff—are generally covered by these protections. Workers who think they're not being paid correctly should keep detailed records of their hours and pay.
