Jackson Lewis: California’s New Piece-Rate Legislation | Practical Law
This Law Firm Publication by Jackson Lewis P.C. discusses California's recently enacted piece-rate compensation law. The new law requires employers paying employees on a piece-rate basis to separately state the employees' hours, compensation rate, and gross wages for each category of rest, recovery periods, and nonproductive time. Failure to meet these recordkeeping requirements could subject employers to penalties and fees under the California Labor Code.
