Wage and Hour Class Action Filed Against Renal Advantage Inc

- by

San Diego, CA: A wage and hour class action lawsuit has been filed against Renal Advantage Inc, on behalf of Dietitians who claim the dialysis centers violated their rights under the California Labor Code.

The lawsuit against Renal Advantage for wage and hour violations alleges that Renal Advantage failed to "properly compensate the dieticians for overtime hours worked" and illicitly prevented them from viewing complete and accurate wage statements, in violation of California overtime pay laws. The complaint asserts that Renal Advantage intentionally misclassified dietitians as exempt from state overtime requirements in order to avoid paying them overtime compensation.

The dietitians claim they should not have been classified as exempt from overtime pay under the law because they never acted as executives or professionals "engaged in the traditional professions of medicine,"which therefore means they should have been classified as non-exempt employees, entitled to overtime compensation for all hours worked in excess of eight in a workday and forty in a workweek under the California Labor Code.

Further allegations in the Renal Advantage Dietitian class action lawsuit state that the dialysis centers systematically failed to provide complete and accurate wage statements to the employees, in violation of California Labor Code. Specifically, the complaint asserts that Renal Advantage provided wage statements "which failed to show, among other things, the number of hours worked."According to California Labor Code, employers are required to give all employees itemized wage statements which accurately show gross wages along with the corresponding hourly rates for all time worked, throughout the pay period.
