This Law Firm Publication by Jackson Lewis P.C. discusses Silva v. See's Candy Shops, Inc., in which a California appeals court concluded that an employer's policy may permit the rounding of entries on employees' timecards to the nearest tenth of an hour. The court determined that for the years analyzed in a report by the employer's expert, the difference between pay based on rounded and unrounded time was statistically meaningless. The appeals court also affirmed the district court's grant of summary judgment to the employer on the plaintiffs' grace period claims. The policy allowed employees to voluntarily punch in or out ten minutes before or after their work time, during which the employees were not permitted to work, often engaged in personal activities, and were unpaid.
