Guardsmark Investigation

Guardsmark provides security services to companies in the financial, health care, transportation, utility, and other industries. Guardsmark offers security guards, private investigation, and drug testing services. In addition, the company conducts background checks (employment, education, and criminal history) and consults with architects and builders to design security programs.

Current and former Guardsmark security employees may be able to obtain compensation if it is found that the company voilated federal and New York labor laws by failing to record and pay security guards minimum wages, wages for all hours worked and overtime wages. Damages could also be awarded if Guardsmark is found to have intentionally and unlawfully failed to pay security guards for time spent conducting mandatory security training after they were hired. Finally, New York Guardsmark employees may also be eligible for compensation if it is found that the company unlawfully deducted earned wages from its employees' hourly compensation for uniform maintenance, miscalculated the overtime wages due to employees, and failed to reimburse security guards for required expenses incurred during the course of their job, such as uniform maintenance pay.
