Employees at Saugus, MA Jin Restaurant Claim Labor Abuse
December 11, 2007 by Chinatown Blogger.
The community newspaper SAMPAN reports that employees at Jin Asian Cuisine restaurant in Saugus, MA are claiming labor abuse. Before learning of these accusations, the Chinatown Blogger had recently took his family to this restaurant for dim sum on Thanksgiving Day. Jin Asian Cuisine is the third reiteration of the business made famous by their Chinese architecture. Known formerly as Weylu, East Coast Manor and now Jin Asian Cuisine, the restaurant does not seem to have sterling online reviews. The SAMPAN article also mentioned that this was not the first time the owners of Jin Asian Cuisine have been accused of worker violations. The New York Attorney General in 1997 filed charges of violations in minimum wage laws and failure to provide overtime pay. This case was settled for $1.1 million. In 2006, six workers in New York also filed claims of violations in minimum wage laws.
