A federal investigation has recovered over $157 thousand in back wages for 65 workers after finding that a Goldsboro-based restaurant’s pay practices denied the workers their full wages by keeping portions of their earned tips. The U.S. Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division determined that Mugen Inc. – operating as Jay’s Kitchen – kept a percentage of their employees’ tips, a minimum wage violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act.
