Most employees think they would recognize discrimination if it happened at work. In reality, workplace bias is often more subtle. For Asian American workers, new research suggests that even when workplace conduct points to possible bias, others may be less likely to see it as discrimination.

In California, whether a worker is classified as an employee or an independent contractor affects nearly every part of the job. For workers in app-based jobs, those classifications are not always straightforward, especially when the work is assigned through a platform instead of a traditional manager.

Worker misclassification is at the center of a recent settlement involving WorkWhile, an online staffing company that uses an app to connect temporary workers with employers across various industries.

If you have ever been labeled an independent contractor at work, you may have wondered what that actually means. For many workers, the label can feel like a technicality. In reality, it can shape everything from whether you are eligible for overtime to whether your employer reimburses you for job-related expenses.

A lawsuit filed against The Campbell’s Company focuses on what happens when companies call workers independent contractors even though their responsibilities resemble traditional employment.

Most people think of workplace harassment as something that happens at a desk, in a break room or during a meeting. Real life is rarely that tidy. Coworkers interact outside the office and on online platforms, sometimes blurring the line between work and private life. When that happens, employees are often left wondering whether the law offers any protection and whether their employer has a responsibility to step in.

California employment law is built around the idea that workers should be protected when they speak up about workplace concerns, whether that involves harassment, questionable business practices or other issues. Still, employers don’t always respond in the way that employees often hope. When you are involved in such circumstances, it’s important to understand your rights. Let’s take a closer look at a recent case that focuses on retaliation, gender discrimination and harassment.

If you work as a delivery driver and your day involves wearing a uniform your company requires, following delivery protocols set by someone else and having your performance tracked closely, you might assume you’re an employee. Under California law, you very likely are one. However, a common practice in the trucking and logistics industry is to label workers as independent contractors instead.

A common practice in the trucking and logistics industry is to label workers as independent contractors. A California Labor Commissioner’s Office investigation found that’s exactly what happened to 58 delivery drivers working in the San Diego area.

Unlawful treatment in the workplace often starts quietly. By the time a worker is terminated, patterns over months or years may reveal whether discrimination was at play.

This scenario was central to a lawsuit against Liberty Mutual Insurance Co., where a California jury found the company engaged in age discrimination. The verdict totaled $103 million and examined how the company treated older employees over time, including decisions that affected benefits, recognition and daily work interactions.

Unlawful treatment in the workplace often starts quietly. By the time a worker is terminated, patterns over months or years may reveal whether discrimination was at play.

If you notice that your paycheck doesn’t reflect all the hours you worked, it’s a good idea to speak to your employer about it sooner rather than later. Missing hours can happen for many reasons in California workplaces, from timekeeping errors to more serious wage violations.

Most major employment cases require that a lawsuit be filed at court. But some workplace disputes may sometimes be resolved even before a lawsuit is filed. There is no guarantee the employer will take the case seriously if no lawsuit is filed.
