If your employer has take taken money out of your check for non-productive time like rest and meal breaks and you work on commission, you may be part of a class action lawsuit. You may not know it, but labor laws require companies to pay for down time and rest and meal breaks.
A recent court decision has defined what constitutes as a rest period and how an employer should pay them for. Retail sales companies like banks with mortgage programs, auto dealers, furniture stores and even jewelry stores have reportedly used tactics like this to avoid paying people what they’re fairly owed. Not paying an employee separate wages for rest periods would be a violation of California Law. Employees in situations like this could be owed money from their employer for rest periods, which could add up to a substantial amount of money.
