The Case: Valenzuela and Manjarrez v. Bamia 2 LLC

The allegations in the case stem from accusations that Bamia 2 LLC allegedly did not accurately record their employees' time on the job. According to the plaintiffs in the case, Bamia 2 LLC did not pay employees for all the time they spent under the employer's control. Specifically, the case references the time employees were required to spend submitting to mandatory Covid-19 screening before they could clock in for work. Based on the off-the-clock time employees logged, the company record of employee hours is inaccurate. The company's allegedly inaccurate time records resulted in both wages below minimum wage requirements and inaccurate overtime wage calculations. The case is currently pending in the San Francisco County Superior Court of the State of California. The alleged conduct and resulting violations could give rise to civil penalties.
