The legal action, brought by the firm Blumenthal Nordrehaug Bhowmik De Blouw LLP, claims the healthcare provider required staff to work through scheduled meal periods without relief. According to the complaint, employees were frequently denied the legally required thirty-minute breaks, even during shifts exceeding ten hours. The filing further alleges that the company engaged in rounding practices to avoid paying statutorily required penalties for missed breaks.

Beyond meal period grievances, the lawsuit addresses the use of personal property for business operations. Plaintiffs claim they were forced to utilize personal cellular phones to perform core job duties without reimbursement, a violation of California Labor Code section 2802. The firm represents the affected employees in their effort to recover unpaid compensation and penalties resulting from these alleged business practices.
