Although conducted one day after it was meant to, reports indicate Imperial Pacific has paid out its July settlement payment.
The payment relates to some $3.36 million in back wages, liquidated damages and civil monetary policies uncovered during a US Department of Labor investigation into labor violations on its Saipan resort, conducted by IPI’s contractors.
Courts have ruled that IPI pay out some $1.47 million in monthly installments of $164,270 from the beginning of April until December 1st as well as submitting a weekly status report to the federal court.
IPI paid out $1.92 million between March 2019 and March 2021 to the DOH and says it has since amended its payroll practices to comply with minimum wage and overtime provisions of the law.
