$7,200,000.00 Settlement for Denied Meal and Rest Breaks
$7,200,000 Settlement — Denied Meal and Rest Breaks
Cable installers working for a national cable/satellite installation company were denied state-mandated meal and rest breaks and were not reimbursed for job-related expenses. Attorney Eric Kingsley negotiated a $7.2 million settlement securing compensation for both the missed breaks and unreimbursed costs.
What This Means for You
California law requires employers to provide meal and rest breaks and to reimburse employees for necessary work-related expenses. If your employer has denied breaks or required you to pay out of pocket for job-related costs, you may be owed compensation.
Contact Kingsley Szamet Employment Lawyers if you believe your break or expense reimbursement rights have been violated.
