This law gives citizens the right to pursue civil penalties on behalf of the State of California Labor and Workforce Development Agency, just as long as there is a formal notice and all the waiting procedures are followed. Basically, this means that an employee that has had their rights violates are allows to act as an attorney general. Any penalties that are recovered , will be split between any parties involved with the Labor and Workforce Development Agency ( LWDA). The LWDA will receive 75% of what is recovered while the employee receive 25%. This law tends to give an employee a large amount of power to sue employers who do not follow the California labor codes.<\/p>\n
