MONTEREY, Calif. (PRWEB) May 25, 2023
The San Francisco employment law attorneys, at Blumenthal Nordrehaug Bhowmik De Blouw LL P, filed a class action complaint alleging that Packers Sanitation Services, LTD. violated the California Labor Code. The Packers Sanitation Services, LTD. class action lawsuit, Case No. 23CV001213, is currently pending in the Monterey County Superior Court of the State of California. A copy of the Complaint can be read here.
According to the Complaint, the company's non-exempt employees were allegedly unable to take off-duty meal breaks due to their rigorous work schedules. 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 and a second uninterrupted meal break when employees are required to work ten (10) hours. The Complaint claims that the company did not provide their employees who forfeited meal breaks additional compensation.
Additionally, Packers Sanitation Services, LTD. allegedly failed to reimburse employees for required business expenses. California Labor Code § 2802 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, Plaintiff and other California Class Members were allegedly required to use their personal cellular phones as a result of and in furtherance of their job duties.
