A Zachry Holdings Inc. subsidiary is facing a potential class-action lawsuit alleging the San Antonio engineering and construction firm failed to follow federal law last month in terminating more than 4,000 workers in the wake of its exit from the Golden Pass LNG project. Avis Lamotte , a Port Arthur resident who was was among the workers Zachry Industrial Inc. terminated, sued the company Monday in U.S.
San Antonio’s Zachry issues 4,410 pink slips as a result of troubles at Golden Pass LNG project Zachry Holdings said in a statement it “is aware of its obligations under the WARN Act and believes it was in compliance with those requirements.” The terminations occurred on or before May 21, the day Zachry Holdings and 20 subsidiaries — including Zachry Industrial — filed for bankruptcy protection in Houston.
Zachry blames insolvency on feud over building costs for Golden Pass LNG export terminal It wants the bankruptcy court to bump Lamotte and the other affected workers to the front of the line of creditors in Zachry's bankruptcy. Their “first prior administrative claim” would be for the sum of their unpaid wages, salary, commissions, bonuses, accrued vacation and holiday pay, retirement contributions and health care insurance, the complaint says.
