You Can Recover the Money You Are Owed for Working from Home!

During the Covid-19 pandemic, many employers told their employees to work from home.  But did you know that, under California law, employers were responsible to pay all reasonable and necessary home office expenses?  These include the following: 

  • Cost of internet service and equipment

  • Cost of cellphone/telephone expenses and equipment

  • Home office equipment like computers, printers, copiers, and furniture

  • Office supplies like toner, paper, pens, and postage

  • Mileage and car expenses for work-related errands and travel 

  • Increased electric bills and other utilities because of working from home

Our law firm specializes in making sure California employees are paid properly. If you incurred expenses working from home that your employer did not reimburse, you might be entitled to a substantial monetary recovery.  Even if your employer paid you a home office stipend, we have found that stipends are often insufficient to cover all work-from-home expenses.

This is very important: It is illegal for a current or former employer to discriminate or retaliate against an employee who makes a claim for unpaid wages or expenses.  You cannot be penalized in any way for asserting your legal rights.  

If you would like a free consultation to find out whether you have a claim, please fill out the short form below.  We will keep your responses completely confidential.
