In regards to wage and hour litigation, California is a leader. The volume of cases in CA courts is unprecedented, and the regulations continue to evolve and grow. As the FLSA is only one piece of the puzzle, it is imperative that companies with a California presence ensure that their wage and hour policies do not run afoul of the myriad of regulations in California. One size might not fit all as it relates to prevention and litigation strategies in California. In this workshop, participants will receive in-depth and California specific insights on:

  • Updates on recent case law, legislation, and trends in wage order claims in California (e.g. suitable seating and vacation pay)
  • Analyzing the voluminous and narrow wage and hour laws specific to California
  • Managing PAGA claims:
    • How do they differ?
    • Avoiding and minimizing PAGA liability
    • Dealing with uncertified PAGA actions
  • Which industries are most susceptible to wage and hour claims in California?
    • A look at which employees are filing the most wage and hour claims and what they are claiming (N. CA, S. CA)
  • Which claims are most frequent and which see the most success?

Speakers:

  • Michelle Lee Flores, Fisher Phillips
  • Jeremy Naftel, Carlton Disante & Freudenberger
