Even Off The Clock, You Deserve Fair Pay
It is against the law for employers to make employees work off the clock without compensation. Even so, far too many employers take advantage of their workers by pressuring them to put in additional hours for little to no pay.

Our employment law firm has more than a decade of experience and has recovered more than $30 million in compensation for employees of all industries. Work with us to seek the pay you deserve and hold your employer accountable for their actions.
What Counts As ‘Off-The-Clock’ Work?
California defines off-the-clock work as any work that a nonexempt employee performs without compensation. This applies to both salaried and hourly work in all industries. Some of the most common examples of off-the-clock work include:
- Pre-shift or post-shift work, including prep and cleaning
- Redoing a project to the employer’s satisfaction
- Correcting errors
- Working during a meal or rest break
- Administrative work
- Mandatory training sessions or meetings
