Employment Law Firm Files Wage and Break Lawsuit Against Thrive Care Services
An employment law firm has filed a class action lawsuit against Thrive Care Services LLC, alleging violations of California labor laws. The suit claims the company failed to accurately record work hours and denied employees required meal and rest breaks.
The San Diego employment law firm Blumenthal Nordrehaug Bhowmik De Blouw LLP has filed a class action complaint against Thrive Care Services LLC, alleging violations of the California Labor Code. The lawsuit, filed in the San Diego County Superior Court under case number 26CU043450C, claims the company failed to properly compensate its employees.
According to the complaint, Thrive Care Services LLC allegedly did not accurately record all hours worked by employees, including time spent working off the clock. This practice is alleged to have resulted in multiple violations of California labor laws. The lawsuit further states that employees were denied legally mandated meal and rest periods, with claims of workers exceeding four hours without receiving a ten-minute rest break, and longer shifts not providing all required breaks.
In addition to wage and hour violations, the suit alleges that Thrive Care Services LLC underpaid sick wages. The company is accused of paying sick leave at an employee's base rate of pay instead of their regular rate. The lawsuit also claims Thrive Care Services LLC failed to reimburse employees for necessary business expenses incurred while performing their job duties, violating California Labor Code sections 246(1)(2) and 2802.
