Santa Monica settles discrimination suit with former employee

Santa Monica wage and hour violations are actions conducted by an employer that negatively impact the payment of earned compensation to their employees. Such activities may include classifying employees as independent contractors when they are technically full-time employees, paying employees less than minimum wage and refusing to pay employees for overtime work.

Employers may engage in such actions knowingly, with the intent of not paying employees for compensation that they have legitimately earned. However, many employers may be violating employees' wage and hour rights without even being aware that they are doing so, or through a simple mistake. Regardless of an employer's intent, employees are still entitled to receive benefits and compensation that they have earned or would be due based on their employment status. Additionally, if an employer's wage and hour violations impact multiple employees, the employees may be able to pursue a class action lawsuit to receive earned compensation and to prevent their employer from continuing to apply improper employment and payroll policies.

For those that feel their protections have been violated by their employer, consulting with an employment law attorney to discuss their potential wage and hour dispute may resolve their issues.
