Understanding California Wage & Hour Laws
California has some of the strongest labor laws in the nation, which are designed to protect workers and make certain that employers treat them fairly. Below are some key regulations and protections that you should know about:
Minimum Wage
California enforces a state minimum wage of $16.50 per hour, which is higher than the federal minimum wage. Employers generally must pay employees this rate. The state's minimum wage is higher for fast food and healthcare workers.
Overtime Pay
Under California law, employees are entitled to overtime pay at 1.5 times their regular rate for hours worked over 8 in a day or 40 in a week.
Meal & Rest Breaks
Employers must provide non-exempt employees with a 30-minute unpaid meal break for every 5 hours worked and a 10-minute paid rest break for every 4 hours worked.
Employee Misclassification
California’s ABC test determines whether a worker is classified as an employee or an independent contractor. Misclassification can deprive workers of key benefits and protections.
Common Wage & Hour Disputes that We Handle
Our attorney and supporting team help clients navigate challenges that stem from a wide range of wage and hour disputes, such as the following:
