The Case No.: 37-2023-00027035-CU-OE-CTL

Failure to provide accurate itemized wage statements
Failure to reimburse employees for required expenses
Failure to pay sick wages
Failure to pay wages when due
The allegations constitute violations of various applicable Labor Codes, including California Labor Code Sections 201-204, 226, 226.7, 233, 246, 510, 512, 1194, 1197, 1197.1, 2802, and the applicable Wage Order(s). The alleged violations would give rise to civil penalties.
The Case: Stephanie Jones v. Rady Children's Hospital
According to the complaint and the plaintiff's allegations, Rady Children's Hospital-San Diego restricted their employees' activities, preventing unconstrained walks. Employees could not leave work premises during their rest periods. Since the applicable California Wage Order requires employers to provide employees with off-duty rest periods, and California's Supreme Court defined "off duty" as time when an employee is relieved from all work-related duties and free from employer control, this alleged behavior constitutes a labor law violation. The case, Stephanie Jones v. Rady Children's Hospital, is currently pending in the San Diego County Superior Court of the State of California.
