My complaint is from the Weston Street office in Hartford CT.
Last JULY. 21.2018 I was employed by the Hartford Branch and was assigned a position at the Amazon's Building 2 in Windsor CT.
MY IMMEDIATE SUPERVISOR FROM PEOPLE READY WAS A WOMAN BY THE NAME OF MEGAN(unclear of we last name )
During that time of EMPLOYMENT at Amazon's I had had an accident occur to my Right Groin muscle.
The National Property Solutions Manager has written up the incident and proceed to advice me the necessary paperwork would be forward to People Ready and that Megan would make sure that it would go through the necessary channels and be filed appropriately in my files.
I have since then have asked Megan and The Hartford office to release a copy of the reports to me and. The Enfield public Defenders Office.
Megan had originally mentioned to me that the PAPERWORK WAS IN THE BACKROOM AND SHE REFUSED TO LOOK FOR IT.
SHE HAS NOT SHOWN ANY EFFORTS WHATSOEVER TO HELP ME IN THUS MATTER.
TO DATE ...I AM STILL IN NEED OF THIS PAPERWORK.
SHE WILL NOT COMPLY WITH THE ENFIELD. COURT SYSTEM. HAS SHOWN NO PROFESSIONAL ISM AT ALL.SHE HAS SHOWN SHE IS TOO LAZY TO LOOK FOR THE PAPERWORK THAT I NEED.
I AM JUST ASKING FOR A COPY OF THIS AND THE ENFIELD COURT WILL BE SATISFIED.

I was put in as inactive for miscommunication on my part and on this branch part for approving to leave early from shifts with walmart with this branch. They told me how to become active again is to submit to a job coming into the office and I did that. July 23- AUG 3.

I submitted to July 23rd-Aug 3, 2018. Mon-Thursday 3-11pm or finish time and Friday at 4pm.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I called the office on Monday to make sure i could get into job stack and i was somewhat but not able to see jobs still. So they wanted me to sign up for the job 3rd shift- i had to check out availability and called back and the 3rd shift was taken. So Karen said that the 2nd shift was available. I Check availability for children for entire week. Found someone to help for the entire week and submitted the request by phone to ms Karen that i could accept second shift for the entire week.

I went in every day. The manager and the ones on the shift said that I did a great job. I turned in each slip as told. Karen called me today. I missed the call and called her back and she said that she took my shift 3-11 and gave to some other guy because they were waiting on the background. She said ... that I can take the 3rd shift. I stated that was not fair and i cannot because I had taken care of a sitter for the entire week. she said so u cannot do third. I said I can let her know by tomorrow. I asked her how can she just take my shift... she said you were a replacement. I said you did not tell me that. That's not my fault. I was prepared.

But the fact is that if I committed to a shift and the other person's background is not back in time is not my fault its the company's problem. I told her okay and hung up. But something was not right so I called back to speak to someone else- drew answered and took my home number 615-203-3541 or cell 615-580-4961 said he would get GM Robert to call me back.

I went back to job stack and now it's stating that I basically called off a shift and i did not not. This IS NOT FAIR. i did not do this they did. I called back to try to speak to Mr. Robert - GM- he is not in still. I would much rather keep my shift since o had already paid and worked out my sitter arrangements. So now once again my character is at state and it's not my fault.

Is this legal?
Can I finish out my week that i submitted to and the time I submitted to. She never told me I was

I do have the slips I turned in to the office.

I was an employee and they will not pay me for the time that I worked. I am a minority and they paid the people who car pooled with me who were white. This is very disturbing and I worked very hard for them and showed up every day. I am calling wage an hour on them as well as getting an a minority attorney I have tried to be paitent

I work for the Madison Tennessee peopleready office. me and a few other guys were sent on a job a few days ago by the branch manager we were not dispatched on jobstack not were we giving a work ticket. They did not habe a work order for the job & upon completing the job we were told they have to get approval from the customers corporate office to pay us. Which I think is quite ridiculous being that we worked.

Since I’ve become an “associate”, I have found that if I do not call for at least a week consistently the hours I work will not be verified or followed up on. Please keep in mind this is with utilization of the “JobStack” app and using the arrived button once on site. It then takes another week of calling to get paid for what’s considered “same day” jobs, shameful. There must be someone (besides the people working at the branches) to contact to expedite this process.

I was contacted by Erika a People Ready Coordinator on Friday Evening prior to a job ticket. She said that she was reaching out to me to let me know that there was an update on a job ticket that was suppose to start at CAD in Columbia City, Indiana. She said that I could not go there because I couldn't work both jobs. A first shift job that I am currently on assignment at Blackhawk Apartments. I was unable to make it there Friday Morning due to a family emergency. I did explain this to her and she told me that I could not work both jobs at the same time due to conflict on interest. I was trying to explain to her that I could do both job and that I had already been doing both and that I could handle it. She (Erika) said to me " I need you to be quiet and it's my turn to talk and for you to listen to me". I was totally caught off guard with the way that she talked to me. This is not the first time that she has been rude to me when calling to ask a question or to inquire about a job or a job ticket. In my honest opinion this is very unprofessional has well as disrespectful. I felt has if though I was being talked to like a child and not an adult or employer to employee. I feel like if I was to try to address this with the office that it would put my chances of continued employment at risk. I feel that if I'm not or anyone else allowed to work multiple work tickets that should be explained before allowing an employee to take a second assignment with their current one. Thank you for your time and I sincerely hope that this is investigated and looked into.

I was told on Fri to show up Mon for a job that ended up getting cancelled but was not notified I showed up Mon and was told by the office because they called people we would not get paid for that even though 3 of us were never notified, I've been yelled at lied to and cheated out of money by them I've also been added to tickets for work and never was notified we're told they have nothing to do with our pay yet three different times they close the office early and all three time we had to wait til the following day to be paid kinda seems as though they have something to do with it also I've been told they didn't get messages that I now know isn't true I called and left a message with them upon getting a new phone and let them know my new number then was told they never received that message yet it's the only way they could've called since they didn't have that new number it's only a small example of a long list of issues the people ready I work for are horrible and treat their people with very little regard to respect now I will say they've recently hired a new lady who seems very nice we'll see and one of the staff Amanda though we've bumped heads once is normally extremely helpful however the other office lady is not only rude to us but also to the clients as I've been told on 2 different job sites of this happening

Look I have worked for the elkhart in branch for years and they sent me to Niles MI on Sunday night and told me if they didn't need me they would give me show up pay and now refuse to pay me. Even though I have the text I was wondering if you can help me with this or should I go somewhere else for the complaint

I just moved back down here from Georgia after my wife passed away and figured I need to get some money coming in while I am looking for steady work. I stopped into People Ready in Largo, FL and this jerk of an employer approached me like I am some piece of garbage. I am a hard working man with no criminal record and just dealt with the passing of my wife and he has the nerve to tell me to "shut up and sit down" when I asked if he had any work! I told him not to talk to me that way! He proceeded to talk down to me and be little me and everyone else who was in the lobby trying to get work. I have never in my life been talked to the way he spoke to me when I am trying to find work! Why is this allowed in that company? Then when I told him my experience he told me he will only pay $8.35 an hour for me to do a roofing job 12-14 hours a day. I told him I can't do it for $8.35 and hour working on a roof and I have my own tools and transportation. He told me if you don't like then "get the hell out of here" or once again "shut up and sit down"! I tried to be nice and kill him with kindness like my mother taught me as a kid. I value my morals and show respect to everyone regardless of the situation but today he completely brought the ugly out of me! I am a grown man and will not be disrespected and be little'd like this young man in the front office of People Ready! If this boys momma taught him any manners he could have asked me to have a seat please and he would be with me in a minute. Instead, he tells me to "shut up and sit down"! You don't tell anyone to "shut up" when you are begging to hire people to do these jobs for you! You most certainly don't disrespect and be little them either! All I have to say is he is gonna ruin a business for the rich man who owns it with his nasty attitude! He needs to be fired and sit in our shoes looking for a job and have someone tell him to "shut up and sit down"! I turned around and walked out as I will not be talked to the way he spoke'd to me when I am trying to get work to live.

Palm Desert location discriminating against me because of injury while at work and their higher than thou attitudes are not conducive to labor relations. Bet they talk in a different tone to employers

I have been with People Ready for almost a year. Some of the branch managers are very domineering, boisterous, and degrading. Some are lacking in their managerial and interpersonal skills. I had a very emotional day yesterday, because I thought I had lost my wallet, the way I was treated was horrible. The Desplaines office blocked me from using the entire Jobstack App instead of not dispatching me through their office. The particular infraction doesn't justify the punishment. I live in boarding house, I pay daily if I can't work, I am on the street. I left Jersey trying to escape an abusive relationship. I have no family and People Ready is so helpful to me. People have stolen merchandise, threatened employees etc on some sites and where not treated with such rudeness. I can be reached at 773 396 6232

I am a subcontractor for people ready I work for the company today recently on the 12th of July of 2018 I was sent out to a job this batch with the ticket I was not paid due to the fact that either through miscommunication that Jeremy the supervisor over there had a mix-up of some kind I asked for a copy of the policy and procedures he told me that y'all do not give it out and that he did not have to pay me because he offered me another job no he did not offer me a job for the day but he offered me the same job for the next day they have already been messed up this is not the first time I have had an issue with this company when I request a job on my mobile app I am cancelled in people other people are put on it even though I had requested job as soon as it became available I feel I need to call the labor board or the Better Business Bureau to report this

People ready Warrington Florida Pensacola Florida Tammy like to file a complaint on her abusive verbal mouth I have experienced her telling people me also to shut up wait before you get paid I experience emailing that ticket at 3:15 not getting paid until 3 hours later which is ridiculous I would like something to be done about this poor peopleready employer Tammy, she works in the office every evening on payout and it takes 3 to 4 hours to get paid thank you

Complaint against Br-1193 for unprofessional conduct, language that was offensive beligerant and rude.
Failure To:
Give the name address and employer information on the initial phone call of confirmations either verbally or through the Text message systems as other branches do after receiving text or verbal confirmation just in case.

Failure to respond to recorded message request for call back or email receipt of the Work ticket, after I was informed by the Dallas Branch of non Receipt of a Work Ticket showing a job assignment for me from Br 1193.

Refused to acknowledge the verication of non receipt of Transferred Work Ticket information. As expressed by BR-Dallas representative Molly who stated to Br-1193 by phone and by email that they had never received a work ticket for the assignment in question..

If you look at my work performance from the Plano, Mesquite as well as the Branch that I signed up with initially
You will see that my acceptance and attendance was 100%, and that I had a high request for return due to my punctuality and work ethic.
If I have no Work Ticket or information for the Assignment in question how is Suspension for NCNS justifiable.

Sylvia at the Tempe Arizona branch wrongfully suspended me for calling off and doing everything for the call off properly. But since she couldn’t find a replacement it’s my fault and out of spite she tries suspending me. Really don’t know who hires who but her attitude and how she think she runs the business is out of line and she needs to be spoken to by a bigger boss to let her know her lane. Because taking money out of people pockets because she feels like it is not how the business is set up.

My name is James M Quigley 3 and am writing this email because I worked on Tuesday 8 2018 for eight hours and I worked on Wednesday 9 2018 for five hours and I still have not received my money for working and I was told it was because of paperwork that I have filled out three times now at the people ready office in Youngstown Ohio and it was supposed to be sent to the green branch office and I don't know what is going on but between the green branch office and payroll office they keep messing up and I would like to have this check out please cause I have bills to pay thank you

I was dispatched do do a job and upon arriving I was told I'll be doing something else in which I have no knowledge of. I was supposed to unload a truck but when I got there I was told I'll be mixing concrete pouring it on holes. I have no knowledge in concrete. When I asked Steve how this can be rectified he said it won't because I walked off the job. But before leaving the job I called the office 5 times even leaving a voicemail informing them of what was taking place. I d5I've 48 miles roundtrip to be ignored when I got back to the office. I ask Steve to let me speak with his boss he told me there's no one there over him. Steve is one rude inconsiderate #$@÷%R!!

I had chose a job on the job stack app and the manager Joe said he had called me the day before to confirm but he didn't so I went to a drug rehab and I want the termination fixed. I have a disability and I wss off my meds when I chose the job but didn't know what the job was about.

There are to many drug addicts and felons at the Labor Ready Seatle location. People with warrants are sent out to work as well as intoxicated on alcohol or drugs. I don't feel safe working with these people and am going to report to l&I and the state of Washington on all the stuff I've witnessed. It's nothing but a place for addicts and criminals to work. You need to do more background checks more often. Some people have active warrants wardens and should not be working or on the streets. You are responsible for the employee you send out.

I worked for a company today that has been paying 9.50 a hour and today they decided to pay me only 8.05 a hour. If that office don't fix in the morning I will be going to better business bureau. End of story. I am tired of getting cheated just like 1207 can pay their employees 9.00 a hour to drive Wednesday at ADESA but the other branches can't. That's not fair at all to the rest of us.

I have not been paid for Sunday at the convention center in Indianapolis I worked as a cook for 7 hours. The manager at the South office refuses to do anything to make sure that we get paid she claims the ticket was never sent and when I got her in the shelf on the phone who's responsible for sending out the work tickets. He told her he sent it now whether they resent it or not they have not and we still have not been paid when I went down there to talk to the shelf. I called them on the phone and look at Labor Ready and let them talk they lied and told him that I want to login about my pay. All I want is my pay 7 hours times $9.50 and to cook.

My complaint is about the corporate payroll services. I don't understand? Why, some times the workers say it can take up to midnight for me to get paid but when I went back several times trying to figure out why I haven't been paid yet. Then they go on their computer do some things and instantly I get my pay stub emailed to me. Also, their was another gentleman that have not been paid for 2 days and basically was to nice to argue with Labor Ready about it and there are a lot more others with similar situation's. To my observation there is some fraudulent activities going on with the whole payroll services.

20

I went out on a job today and brought back a signed ticket. Well Labor Ready billing department, hey sent it into pay roll department this morning at 7:45a.m. I'm still waiting too get paid. I did ask if the ticket was sent and was told yes. I'm very upset that they now use a payroll department instead of paying out through the branch. Now I'm going to be charge a late fee for my rent and that's not fair. Where is the customer service?

40

Terrible and horrible treatment by a customer service rep at Labor Ready and an assistant manager. Bad treatment towards employees. The hollywood fl office is operated by henry the manager and virginia the assistant manager. Nick the customer service rep has a great personality but rochelle an assistant manager is a horrible person.

On 08-23-2016 virginia calls me up to the counter for payout. I looked at my receipt an saw I was paid incorrectly. As I explain to her the problem she screams at me you always have a problem. But my ticket clearly says folklift operator which entitle me to a higher rate of pay. So she realized her mistake then says I did not pay you. All this time she was screaming like an insane person.

20

I am owed from August 2013 for approx. 9-12 days of 11 hours a day plus at least one weekend prevailing wages through Labor Ready. I was paid minimum wage. I recently learned it was a P. W. Wage job as another temp agency is already receiving back pay for. How can I elevate this complaint further?

Would just like to tell the folks at the labor ready at the Lafayette Louisiana office that people like to sue people - if possible tell them to call me for more information.

I started my work from Labor Ready. Initially the pay was low but later on as I went and go few more offers the pay was higher. I called them couple of times to look in for placements that can pay me better after my education was done. As soon as I finished my last semester, they sent me offers and I was paid quite well. One can get connected to them even online and they have some kind of jobs available for students, summer jobs, military and weekend too. I have referred my friends to them and some of them have taken up the job offers too. Thanks Labor Ready for empowering people like me.
