The United States Department of Labor alleged on Thursday that Hyundai and two of its supplier companies illegally employed a 13-year-old who was kept working up 60 hours a week on an assembly line in Alabama.
In a new complaint, the department alleges Best Practice, a staffing agency, sent the child to work at SMART Alabama, which provided car parts to Hyundai. The complaint alleges all three companies were responsible for employing the child. Hyundai owns a majority of SMART’s parent company, according to the complaint.
“We are reviewing the new lawsuit and intend to vigorously defend the company,” Hyundai said in a statement provided to CNN. Hyundai said it took steps to fix the issue upon learning of it and has taken steps to prevent any future employment of under-age workres. “After we learned of the alleged supplier violations, we took immediate actions.
