The litigation, registered as Case No. 211202, claims the healthcare provider failed to accurately track total hours worked, specifically citing instances of off-the-clock labor. Beyond wage discrepancies, the filing outlines a pattern of denied meal and rest periods. According to the complaint, employees were frequently required to work more than four hours without the legally mandated ten-minute rest breaks, with some shifts exceeding ten hours lacking the required frequency of relief periods.
Class Action Filed Against Northern California Rehabilitation Hospital
A class action lawsuit filed in Shasta County Superior Court accuses Northern California Rehabilitation Hospital, LLC of systemic labor violations. The complaint, brought by the law firm Blumenthal Nordrehaug Bhowmik De Blouw LLP, alleges the facility systematically underpaid staff and denied mandatory rest breaks.
The lawsuit further challenges the hospital's compensation practices regarding sick leave and business expenses. Plaintiffs allege that sick pay was distributed at the base rate rather than the required regular rate of pay. Additionally, the facility reportedly failed to reimburse staff for job-related expenses, in violation of California Labor Code sections 246 and 2802. Blumenthal Nordrehaug Bhowmik De Blouw LLP is representing the plaintiffs, seeking redress for what they characterize as widespread unfair business practices.
