IS YOUR BOSS PAYING YOU ON YOUR REGULAR PAYDAY? IF NOT, YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO SUE.

In California, wages (with some exceptions) must be paid at least twice during each calendar month on the days your employer has designated in advance as regular paydays. CA law states that your employer must establish a regular payday and is required to post a notice that shows the day, time and location of your payment. For the most part, wages earned between the 1st and 15th days of any calendar month must be paid no later than the 26th day of the month you performed the work. Additionally, wages earned between the 16th and last day of the month must be paid by the 10th day of the following month. Talk to an experienced employment attorney if your CA employer is not following the law.

When a large loan modification company based in Irvine, CA allegedly violated labor laws by not paying their employees on regularly established paydays, the employees took legal action. They are suing their employer for a million dollars and, if they can prove that the company violated the law, they might be able to win. As an employee in CA you are entitled to receive proper pay for the work you perform. The law is on your side!
