According to allegations made in the lawsuit, Pacific Western Bank violated the California Labor Code by failing to pay their employees proper wages. Additional allegations indicate the employer failed to provide accurate pay statements to their workers as required by employment law.
Employment Law Requires Accurate and Itemized Wage Statements:
According to the lawsuit filed, Pacific Western Bank violated numerous employment laws listed in California Labor Code Sections §§ 201, 202, 203, 226, 226.7, 510, 512, 1194, 1197, 1197.1, 2802, and the applicable Wage Order(s).
