The Department of Labor announced today that CVS Pharmacies agreed to pay “civil money penalties totaling $226,598 and to pay 51 employees back wages totaling $38,151 following an investigation by the department of 63 retail locations in the Northeast that revealed violations of the wage and youth employment provisions of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The youth violations involved exposing the teen employees to hazardous conditions and working too many hours. The back wages were due as a result of store managers improperly editing the time cards of various employees.
