Los Arboles Harvesting Faces Class Action Over Labor Law Violations

The lawsuit, Case No. 2026CUOE071332, brought by the Zakay Law Group, outlines a pattern of labor code violations. Plaintiffs assert that workers were frequently interrupted during breaks to complete tasks and were regularly required to work shifts exceeding five or ten hours without receiving the legally mandated meal periods. The firm argues these practices left employees on-duty without the additional pay required by California regulations.

Beyond missed breaks, the complaint alleges broader payroll and record-keeping failures. The company is accused of underpaying minimum and overtime wages, failing to provide accurate itemized wage statements, and neglecting to reimburse employees for necessary business expenses. Furthermore, the suit claims the company obstructed the inspection of employee records. Attorney Jackland Hom is representing the class, with the firm seeking to address these employment practices across the state.
