Sacramento Employment Wage and Hour Claims

Most people go to work everyday without ever questioning their employers’ compensation practices. Alternatively, employers may outright fail to pay employee their due wages or fail to live up to promises to pay wages. Employees fail to realize that California has enacted strict wage and hour laws, under the California Labor Code and Industrial Welfare Commission (IWC) Wage Orders, guaranteeing them rights to fair pay. Without these laws, employers would produce more wealth and employees would take home less pay.

The following are only a few of the most common wage and hour violations.

Overtime
Minimum Wage
Meal/Rest Breaks
Independent Contractors
Illegal Deductions
Vacation Pay
Promise to Pay Wages/Failure to Pay Wages
Retaliation

If you feel that your employer has failed to pay you wages or has retaliated against you for making a claim for wages, you may be entitled to reinstatement, back wages, penalties, and interest.
