Tualatin Valley Transport
Ripoff, Labor Law violations won't pay overtime even if worked

As a former employee of Tualatin Valley Transport, Inc., a trucking company based out of Hillsboro, Oregon, though actually physical location of office and trucks is in Portland, Or, I have seen first hand how they treat their help.

I was hired on as an HOURLY driver, worked my hours AND ALWAYS more (required), but they would only pay straight pay. They did not believe in "overtime" pay of time and a half for hours over 40 in a work week. When I brought this up with them, they became irritated and I soon found myself out of a job... For trying to get them to pay me what I was owed.

They came up with a bunch of made-up crap saying that I had been written up 4 times in two months. Funny, I've never seen anything before, or even now. When I asked to see these "write ups", they said they were not at the Portland location, but at the Hillsboro location (their home.) Personally, I believe they had not filled out anyting, and the "write ups" were either made up or hold incorrect information.

They cheat their employees (have been doing it for years according to other drivers there...) but as they did not want to make waves and lose their jobs (always the threat), they remain silent. Well, I'm turning them over to the authorities and agencies that handle such matters. I hope they learn their lesson.

A TIP: If you're from the area here, don't work for them.
