California high court rules against Starbucks in ‘off the clock’ compensation case

On July 27, 2018, Dana Kravetz was quoted in the Nation’s Restaurant News article, “California high court rules against Starbucks in ‘off the clock’ compensation case.” In the piece, Mr. Kravetz comments on the importance of employers capturing the time spent by employees on minor tasks undertaken before/after clocking in/out of work now that the California Supreme Court has ruled that the so-called de minimis defense does not, for the most part, apply to California Labor Code wage claims.
