Labor Law Attorneys, at Blumenthal Nordrehaug Bhowmik De Blouw LLP, File Lawsuit Against Sharp Memorial Hospital for Allegedly Failing to Accurately Pay Employees' Wages
The lawsuit alleges Sharp Memorial Hospital violated the California Labor Code by failing to compensate their employees for missed meal and rest breaks, as well as allegedly failing to reimburse employees for required business expenses.
SAN DIEGO, March 12, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The San Diego employment law attorneys, at Blumenthal Nordrehaug Bhowmik De Blouw LLP, filed a complaint alleging that Sharp Memorial Hospital violated various California labor laws. The lawsuit against Sharp Memorial Hospital, Case No. 37-2021-00006007-CU-OE-CTL, is currently pending in the San Diego County Superior Court of the State of California. To read a copy of the Complaint, please click here.
According to the lawsuit filed, Sharp Memorial Hospital allegedly required PLAINTIFFS and other CALIFORNIA CLASS Members to work while being clocked out. This allegedly resulted in a loss of both minimum and overtime wages. The applicable California Wage Order requires employers to provide employees with off-duty rest periods, which the California Supreme Court defined as time during which an employee is relieved from all work related duties and free from employer control.
Cal. Lab. Code § 2808 expressly states that "an employer shall indemnify his or her employee for all necessary expenditures or losses incurred by the employee in direct consequence of the discharge of his or her duties..." During employment, PLAINTIFFS and other CALIFORNIA CLASS Members were allegedly required to use their personal cellular phones in order to complete their job duties. As a result, they allegedly incurred unreimbursed business expenses.
