Complying with Wage and Hour Obligations in the Face of Crisis

March 30, 2023 Filed Under: Wage & Hour (CA)

The recent seizure and shutdown of two prominent regional banks – Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank – highlights for employers the issues that an unexpected liquidity crisis may bring.

As a result, attendance, scheduling, and payroll were all thrown for a loop, and litigation ensued.

Whether failing financial systems, unexpected cyberattacks, or an economic downturn for businesses, employers are still required to honor their wage and hour obligations. Because crisis typically strikes with little to no warning, employers should plan to ensure they can make payroll and consider how to handle furloughs and layoffs in advance of crisis.
