Additionally, the class action lawsuit alleges that Plaintiff and other truck drivers working for the Core-Mark in California are paid on a piece-rate basis. The lawsuit claims that the truck drivers are not paid all minimum wages for all their hours worked because of Core-Mark's alleged failure to record all time worked. Specifically, the Complaint claims that the truck drivers should be paid minimum wages for their non-driving tasks, including but not limited to the work performed during pre-trip and post-trip inspections and time spent allegedly waiting for Core-Mark's loads to be ready for transport.
