The California Department of Labor has issued more than $336,000 in assessments against a San Diego County-based janitorial service that will eventually go to workers who were not paid proper wages, according to a statement from the agency.

The assessments were issued against California Office Maintenance Inc., which is based in Poway. The amount covers rest and meal breaks that workers didn’t get, overtime payments they weren’t paid and, in some cases, hiring a “husband and wife team” but paying them only one salary.

According to the company’s website, they have a variety of commercial clients that include retailers, offices, theaters and non-profit businesses.
