Other California Wage and Hour Violations

There are a number of other wage and hour requirements beyond those governing the payment of overtime wages, minimum wages, and the one-hour additional wage for meal or rest break. These include but are not limited to providing accurate itemized statements and prompt payment of wages.

Itemized Wage Statement Violations

Employers are required to provide employees with an accurate itemized statement of hours worked and gross and net pay. 

Many times when an employer has failed to pay wages due, they have also failed to provide an accurate itemized wage statement as required by law. This may require the employer to pay penalties on a per pay period basis of $50 for the first violation $100 thereafter up to a total amount up to $4,000. 

Prompt Payment Violations

Employers are also responsible for prompt payment of wages due and can be subject to significant penalties (30 days wages) if they fail to promptly pay all wages that are due to an employee who is discharged or quits.
