Massachusetts issued $6.2 million in citations against national delivery service company Gopuff and two executives over allegations of employee misclassification among other labor violations. The Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office announced the citations on Wednesday.

“When employers misclassify their workers, they deprive them of basic employee protections and benefits, and create an unfair playing field for other law-abiding companies,” Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell said.

GoBrands Inc. and GB Logistics LLC — which do business as Gopuff — along with company President Yakir Gola and Treasurer Rafael Illishayev have been issued three citations for misclassifying employees as independent contractors, failing to furnish suitable paystubs and failing to maintain an earned sick leave policy.

Gopuff was originally founded in 2013. It delivers groceries, alcohol, home essentials and other products directly to customers’ homes. It operates in the US and Europe.

The Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office began investigating the company after receiving complaints from former and current workers. The citations cover 968 employees.
