San Francisco Employment Class Action<\/strong><\/p>\n

A class action is a legal action brought to the court by a group of people in a similar class when they collectively sue another party or group. This is much like when a consumer group files legal suit against a company. This is known as a class action lawsuit. The California Legal Code permits the employees to file a class action suit against the employer company. California Law provides four different types of class action suits which can be filed by the employees.<\/p>\n

Employee groups agree to file class action suits when the employer does not fulfil their basic requirements at the workplace which are mandatory in the California Labor Code. California law entitles the employees to proper meal and rest breaks, overtime wages,non-discriminatory working environment etc.under the labor rules. When the employer fails to do so, the employees can bring a class action suit collectively against him.<\/p>\n

Many employers violate the labor laws of California and do not provide basic amenities to the employees like giving proper meal breaks. Many such matters when filed are settled out of court by the employers by paying compensation to the employees but there is not much change in their behaviour and they continue to breach the labor policies. The employer tries to pay less and get away with the case when an individual employee files the case. So it is always better to sue the employer in a class action lawsuit by a group of employees.<\/p>\n

A class action suit is more effective because in it, more than one employee sue the employer for breach caused against all the employees who are working in the same place. When a class action suit is brought upon the company, it is much likely that the company will listen to the employees and comply with the laws. Moreover, the employees who have raised their voice and have filed the class action suit on behalf of the other employees are awarded additional compensation apart from their claims as an incentive. This is a reward given to these employees as they have put extra effort in bringing the plight of the employees in front of the court and filing the lawsuit against the company. This extra effort is rewarded so that other employees also can put up courage in the future against such discrimination and fight for their rights.<\/p>\n
