All workers have rights on the job. In California, workers are protected by labor laws. It does not matter where you were born or what your legal status is. Once you are hired, you have rights.
If you work in California, you are covered by the California Labor Code. It does not matter where your company is "based" out of. As such, under California law, a "use it of lose it" policy is illegal.
If you wish to report a widespread violation of labor law by your employer or a violation affecting multiple employees, please contact LETF via phone, online lead referral form or email: Call the LETF Public hotline anytime: 855 297 5322. Complete the Online Form / Spanish Form. Email us at letf@dir.ca.
