A Pennsylvania-based company owned by a Marco Island resident has agreed to settle a class action lawsuit filed by home health caregivers for $2.2 million.
Total Health Home Care Corp., owned by resident Michael Callahan, was sued by some 3,000 employees for failing to compensate workers for time spent traveling between clients or for overtime accrued when travel caused workers to clock more than 40 hours in a week.
The settlement was announced by a press release from the Service Employees International Union-Healthcare Pennsylvania, a supporter of the employees who filed suit against the company for alleged violations of Pennsylvania law regulating wages.
Founded in 1985, Total Health provides at-home health services to seniors in Philadelphia and Delaware county seniors, in Pennsylvania.
