Class Action Wage & Hour and PAGA Claims: Learn How to Avoid Every Employer’s Worst Nightmare Webinar


California employers are constantly under scrutiny for compliance with employment laws, and even the most careful and compliant businesses can find their business practices subject to legal challenges. While compliance with the law ultimately will preclude liability, proving it can be costly, difficult, and often hinges on the quality of the employer’s records and documents. Even still, actual legal compliance may not prevent a lawsuit being filed claiming noncompliance.  

Join fellow members and finance provides as we welcome LUKAS CLARY and RYAN ABERNETHY of Weintraub Tobin's Labor & Employment Group. Our guest speakers will discuss the PAGA and class action cases that are trending, as well as provide practical guidance for employers to make adjustments to business practices and communications to reduce the risk of becoming a target. Additionally, they will recommend best practices, including:
  • wage and hour and reimbursement policies, offer letters, job descriptions, and forms;
  • communicating policy changes;
  • common timekeeping practices that create risk;
  • employee verification; and
  • proactive internal audits.
