BRYAN COUNTY, Ga. (WTOC) - Two former Hyundai megasite construction workers have been awarded tens of thousands of dollars after filing a lawsuit against subcontractors saying they were not paid money they were owed.

Migrant workers Jonathon Rincon and Martin Garcia will be paid a collective $43,000 by a Hyundai subcontractor, which includes unpaid wages, damages, and attorney’s fees.

Federal lawsuit filed against multiple subcontractors

Rincon and Garcia filed a federal lawsuit against Hyundai subcontractor Sys-Con in August 2024, saying they were never paid raises that they were owed and were never given overtime pay despite regularly working over 40 hours a week.

H&B USA and PPE Trading Co, subcontractors of Sys-Con, were also ultimately named in the lawsuit.
