Show Me the Money! Avoiding the Most Expensive California Wage and Hour Mistakes—Part I
California is notorious for its complicated, employee-friendly, and strictly enforced wage and hour laws. Employers have paid multimillion dollar settlements or judgments in class action and Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA) litigation because of technical violations of the California Labor Code and wage orders—many of which are based on unknowing and avoidable mistakes. In most cases, employers can minimize or avoid liability by adopting robust compliance programs and rigorously enforcing company policies. In the first webinar of our two-part series, the speakers will address timekeeping, off-the-clock work (including pre-shift and post-shift activities), wage statement requirements, reporting time pay, expense reimbursement, and PAGA.
