Goodfellas has long history of wage theft, according to DOL

Yesterday 40 people turned out to boycott against Goodfellas. We are asking Gerry Iannaccone to pay minimum wage, overtime, and stolen wages to 4 workers. But this is not the first time he has stolen from workers!

The Connecticut Department of Labor has released documents showing that:

Ten Goodfellas employees complained to the DOL about wage theft between 2007 - 2010. The DOL forced Gerry Iannaccone to pay $9,528 in stolen wages to those 10 employees.

What's more, the US Department of Labor (a separate agency) investigated another wage theft complaint in 2009, and forced Iannaccone to pay $7,000 to 3 former employees, according to US DOL spokesman.

Enough is enough! See press coverage of yesterday's protest on our PRESS PAGE.

Press Conference! Wed. April 20

After 4 negotiations with the owner, he still refuses to pay the workers the $23,000 they are owed. He presented them with checks for less than 45% of what they were owed, and they refused.

He said he would never pay kitchen staff minimum wage and overtime, because "that's the way business works in America," and "all restaurant owners do it and get away with it."

We need to teach him a lesson: A change is coming to the restaurant industry in New Haven! We need you to join us on the picket line!
