LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) March 07, 2018 -- The Los Angeles employment law lawyers at Blumenthal Nordrehaug Bhowmik De Blouw LLP, filed a class action complaint alleging that The Travelers Indemnity Company failed to provide their California employees with meal and rest periods as required by California law. The Travelers Indemnity Company class action lawsuit, Case No. BC695351, is currently pending in the Los Angeles County Superior Court for the State of California. A copy of the Complaint can be read here.
According to the lawsuit filed in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, The Travelers Indemnity Company allegedly failed to provide their employees with meal and rest breaks because allegedly The Travelers Indemnity Company did not have a policy to provide their hourly employees thirty (30) minute uninterrupted meal breaks prior to their fifth (5th) hour of work. California labor laws require an employer to provide an employee required to perform work for more than five (5) hours during a shift with, a thirty (30) minute uninterrupted meal break prior to the end of the employee's fifth (5th) hour of work.
Additionally, the complaint further alleges The Travelers Indemnity Company committed acts of unfair competition in violation of the California Unfair Competition Law, Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code §§ 17200, et seq. (the “UCL”), by engaging in a company-wide policy and procedure which failed to accurately calculate and record all missed meal and rest periods by PLAINTIFF and other CALIFORNIA CLASS Members. As a result of DEFENDANT’s intentional disregard of the obligation to meet this burden, DEFENDANT allegedly failed to properly calculate and/or pay all required compensation for work performed by the members of the CALIFORNIA CLASS and violated the California Labor Code.
