San Francisco labor law attorneys<\/a> for the plaintiff were also successful in proving that the employees were not properly compensated for being on call or off duty stand by. Metson Marine would allow the employees to sometimes leave the ship, unpaid, for personal reasons however they required that the employees carry a phone, be within 45 minutes of the ship and they were not to drink alcohol. The court found that Metson Marine should have paid the employees during the on-call times as hours worked because of the restrictions that were placed on the employees during this time.<\/p>\nThe California labor law attorneys for the plaintiff asked for payment of the 8 hours during which the employees were sleeping on the ship. Metson Marine did have one victory in this suit; the court held that the sleep time of the employees was subject to payment as time worked.
\nIf you are concerned that you have not been paid properly for being placed on call or standby and or overtime, please contact an experienced California labor law attorney to review your situation.<\/p>\n
