- Wage and hour- The U.S. Department of Labor and the California Labor Commissioner's Office enforce wage and hours laws so you are fairly treated and compensated for your work, governing areas such as:
- Minimum wage
- Overtime pay
- Recordkeeping requirements
- Rest and meal time requirements
- Child labor
- Wage reduction
- Contractor requirements
- Children working in the entertainment industry
- Tip pooling
- Independent contractor classification - Independent contractors do not receive the benefits that employees receive, such as health insurance, vacation pay, sick pay, and so on. To avoid paying benefits, some companies classify employees as independent workers, which is illegal.
- Overtime disputes - California law entitles you to receive overtime pay if you work more than 40 hours a week or over 8 hours a day. Workers paid hourly wages along with salaried workers in non-management positions are entitled to overtime pay. To avoid paying overtime, some employers give management titles to workers without assigning management responsibilities or functions. Your work activities, not the job title determine whether you should be paid for overtime. Bonafide managers on salary who spend more than half of their work time supervising or managing other employees may not draw overtime pay.
