Electrical Consultants Faces Class Action Over Labor Code Violations

San Diego employment attorneys have initiated a class action lawsuit against Electrical Consultants, Inc., alleging the company systematically denied staff legally mandated meal and rest periods. Filed in San Diego County Superior Court, the complaint claims the firm manipulated timekeeping to avoid paying mandatory labor penalties.

The lawsuit, identified as Case No. 26CU044816C, asserts that employees were frequently required to work shifts exceeding five or ten hours without receiving required off-duty breaks. According to the complaint, the company allegedly utilized rounding practices on meal period timestamps, effectively forcing workers to forfeit break time without proper compensation. Beyond break violations, the filing accuses the firm of failing to reimburse staff for business-related expenses. Specifically, employees were reportedly required to use their personal cellular phones for work duties without receiving the indemnification required under California Labor Code § 2802. Blumenthal Nordrehaug Bhowmik De Blouw LLP, the firm representing the plaintiffs, is currently seeking to address these claims through the San Diego court system.
