Failure to Reimburse for Work-Related Expenses

Long Beach Lawyers Addressing Employers' Failure to Reimburse for Work-Related Expenses

Employers who require employees to wear specific types of clothing on the job, such as apparel or accessories of distinctive design or color — must reimburse for the expense of acquiring the uniform or required apparel or accessories. Reimbursements may also include the purchase of tools, equipments, or cell phones for work purposes.

Contact an employment law attorney at the law offices of Westrup Klick, LLP, in Long Beach to discuss your "failure to reimburse" employment law case. Employees may qualify for compensation if their employer did not reimburse them for required, necessary expenditures. An employer may have required an employee to maintain a fax line or to buy specific boots — but did not reimburse the employee as required by law.

Whether an employee is (or was) an hourly or salaried employee, the employee may have the right to be reimbursed for personal work-related expenditures that his or her employer required as a condition of working for them. A class action claim may be the most feasible way for all of you who were wronged to obtain relief.

We organize employees who were wronged by employers' failure to reimburse for work-related expenses, gather evidence and bring cases to state and federal courts on behalf of ordinary working people who might not otherwise be able to hire an attorney.

You may be eligible to initiate or join a class action suit that will force the employer to correct unlawful practices.
