Swissport Cargo Services, L.P. allegedly failed to accurately record all hours employees worked. Allegedly, this resulted in inaccurate and incomplete wages and wage statements.
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Los Angeles employment law attorneys, at Blumenthal Nordrehaug Bhowmik De Blouw LLP, filed a class action complaint alleging that Swissport Cargo Services, L.P. violated the California Labor Code. The Swissport Cargo Services, L.P. class action lawsuit, Case No. 24STCV31310, is currently pending in the Los Angeles County Superior Court of the State of California. A copy of the Complaint can be read here.
Swissport Cargo Services, L.P. was required to pay employees for all time worked, meaning the time during which an employee was subject to the control of an employer, including all the time the employee was permitted or suffered to permit this work. Allegedly, DEFENDANT required these employees to work off the clock without paying them for all the time they were under DEFENDANT's control. To the extent that the time worked off the clock does not qualify for overtime premium payment, DEFENDANT, allegedly, failed to pay minimum wages for the time worked off-the-clock in violation of Cal. Lab. Code §§ 1194, 1197, and 1197.1
California Labor Code § 226 provides that every employer shall furnish each of his or her employees with an accurate itemized wage statement. Plaintiff was paid on an hourly basis. Therefore, Plaintiff's wage statements should reflect all applicable hourly rates during the pay period and the total hours worked, and the applicable pay period in which the wages were earned pursuant to California Labor Code Section 226(a). Allegedly, the wage statements Defendant provided to Plaintiff failed to identify such information.
