THE CROTON CHRONICLE--CADDIES PLAN MAJOR ESCALATION IN THEIR UNFAIR LABOR PRACTICES LAWSUIT AGAINST CROTON'S HUDSON NATIONAL GOLF CLUB

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

THE CROTON CHRONICLE -- MICHAEL BALTER

For more than a year, the Chronicle has been following a case filed in federal court by seven former caddies at the Hudson National Golf Club (HNGC) claiming that they were short-changed in their wages by, in essence, allegedly not being paid real wages at all. The caddies argue that while their work situation was effectively that of employees, they were treated as “independent contractors,” in violation of both federal and state fair labor laws.

The golf club has vigorously defended against the lawsuit, but so far they have failed to put a stop to it. MORE AT (87) Caddies plan major escalation in their unfair labor practices lawsuit against Croton's Hudson National Golf Club.
