Defending California Wage and Hour Litigation Amid New Legislation and Court Decisions

On October 28, San Francisco partner Cheryl Orr spoke at the Strafford “Defending California Wage and Hour Litigation Amid New Legislation and Court Decisions” webinar. The webinar provided guidance on navigating wage and hour litigation in California. The panel discussed difficulties posted by Private Attorneys General Act claims and joint employer liability for wage violations and highlighted the risks of doing business in California for employers.

The panel reviewed these key issues:

• What language should companies include in arbitration agreements to address PAGA claims?
• What contractual indemnity provisions should employers include in agreements with staffing agencies?
• What best practices should California employers institute to monitor labor contractors for wage and hour compliance?
