The chief executive officer and president of a upscale Southport salon has been slapped with a prospective federal class action lawsuit alleging she didn’t pay workers for training and staff meetings. The lawsuit also alleges workers often put in more than 40 hours weekly and were not paid time-and-a-half for the overtime, as required by law.

The amended lawsuit, which was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut on Tuesday, alleges Cher Anderson, the principal owner of Total Look Salon & Spa, had about 12 hours of training for employees a month, but didn’t pay for that time. In addition, employees were required to spend about one hour a week working on training assignments, usually on mannequins, for no pay.
