The man is the owner of Xpress Services, Express Services, Labor Fast, Fast Track Systems and CSI Services, Inc. The companies provide workers for a variety of construction jobs, mostly for drywall work.
Authorities report the man had some 110 employees, but only claiming having half that many and paid no workers comp on the others. The alleged offenses occurred between January 2006 and July of this year. (WCxKit)
