The key thing that you need to remember about 4-hour minimum pay in California is that hourly employees must be paid for at least half of the amount of time that they were scheduled to work. If you were not paid the proper amount in this situation, your rights were violated. If your employment rights were violated for any reason — whether you were denied minimum shift pay or you were asked to work more than the maximum number of days an employee can work in a row — you should be ready to consult with an experienced Los Angeles wage and hour law attorney.
