CRANBERRY, Pa. (AP) — Sixty-nine Pennsylvania and West
Virginia workers for a company that tests water samples at natural gas
and oil drilling sites are getting more than $187,000 in back pay after
wrongly being denied overtime.
The U.S. Department of Labor on
Wednesday announced the action by Groundwater and Environmental Services
Inc. of Exton, Pa. The company did not immediately respond to requests
for comment.
The department says the issue was discovered as part
of an enforcement effort that focuses on the growing number of vendors
who perform services related to the hydraulic fracturing — or fracking —
process used on Marcellus Shale wells.
The department says GES
workers based in Cranberry, Pa., and Fairmont, W. Va., were wrongly
denied overtime when the company claimed they were exempt because of
their specialized training.
