CALIFORNIA EMPLOYMENT WAGE/HOUR LAW:

Our firm is proud of our past and continuing success in representing employees victimized by employers’ disregard of wage and hour laws.

All too often, employers use their unequal bargaining position to force employees to “agree” to do such things as:

  • work extra hours off the clock or for no overtime premium;
     

  • receive a fixed salary regardless of how many hours are worked (usually by improperly designating the employee as a manager or supervisor when at least half of the employee’s time is spent performing nonexempt tasks;
     

  • work without taking meal or rest breaks;
     

  • work for less than minimum wage or other minimum compensation requirements, such as those applicable to computer software personnel;
     

  • accepting pay on a commission or piece rate basis that does not also provide for overtime premiums or guarantee payment at the minimum wage;
     

  • perform preparatory or concluding tasks incidental to their work such as putting on or taking off uniforms, preparing work areas, cleaning up, traveling to jobsites, attending seminars, conventions, trade shows or classes, etc. without paying for their time;
     

  • forego reimbursement for mileage and other expenses or improperly reimburse the employer for losses due to ordinary negligence;
     

  • make day laborers, models and others hired for a fixed period of time to wait for payment instead of paying all wages due immediately on the day their employment ends as the law expressly requires;

These one-sided agreements are null and void, and for good reason. Our society has democratically established a minimum floor of protections guaranteed to all workers. No employer has the right to disregard or circumvent these rules, simply because they think they can get away with it by finding people who for various reasons need the job too much to say no. That is why you do a service not just for yourself, but also to your coworkers and community, by taking legal action against your employer to stop these practices.

If you are ready to take the steps necessary to force your past or present employer to comply with the law, or are unsure of your rights, contact us immediately.
