Allegations
The complaint alleges that the employer failed to pay sick pay at the correct rate because additional compensation was not included when calculating sick pay wages. It further alleges that the employer willfully failed to pay all wages due at termination or resignation, exposing it to waiting time penalties. It further alleges that the employer paid meal period premium wages at base hourly rates rather than the regular rate of pay. It further alleges that the employer's wage statements did not show the rate and hours for certain pay and did not accurately show the rate for sick leave, overtime, or premium wages.
