Nail Salon Employees

Manhattan, NY: (Oct-30-07) Three former workers brought charges against 167 Nail Plaza, a salon on the Upper West Side, alleging that they were treated unfairly and were denied federal employment rights. As part of a settlement reached with former salon owner Dong Rim Park, a jury in Federal District Court awarded one worker, Susan Kim, $182,000 for overtime violations and as compensation for being fired for demanding lunch breaks. Another worker received $40,000 in a settlement over overtime and retaliation claims and a third worker received a $3,500 settlement. Sources claim that the salon was sold in September 2007.
