Swissport, a major airport services company, has agreed to pay $3.1 million in a settlement related to violations of state employment laws at Boston's Logan Airport. The Massachusetts Attorney General's office revealed that nearly half of the employeesâapproximately 1,050 out of 2,100âwere affected by untimely wage payments, overtime pay discrepancies, and inaccurate payroll records. The investigation was prompted by complaints from workers and the Service Employees International Union (SEIU). Attorney General Andrea Campbell emphasized the government's commitment to protecting workers' rights against such violations.
"When employers violate our laws, including through wage theft and untimely payments, workers are unfairly harmed, exploited, and financially deprived," Attorney General Andrea Campbell said in a statement.
"We look forward to a continuing collaborative relationship with Swissport that will ensure that workers are properly compensated for the difficult and essential work they do," Rivera said.
