LA airport catering workers sue for underpaid overtime

Catering workers who service airlines at Los Angeles International Airport have filed a lawsuit claiming they're owed hundreds of thousands of dollars in unpaid overtime. The suit claims the food service company Sky Chefs shortchanged workers from Jan. 1 to the present. Sky Chefs says it doesn't comment on pending litigation. The filing describes the company's actions as systematic and widespread. One plaintiff says the company underpaid him $3.74 per hour for overtime. The suit seeks damages equal to the underpaid overtime hours with applicable interest. An attorney says it would likely amount to "at least a few million dollars."
