Wage Theft Judgment Dashboard

This dashboard provides you with the ability to search wage claims issued by the California Labor Commissioner (LCO) for cases filed through the San Diego Office between January 1, 2017, to the most recent quarter.

A wage claim judgment is issued when an employer fails to pay wages as required under the California Labor Code, such as unpaid overtime or wages below minimum wage, commonly known as wage theft. If the employer does not pay, the Labor Commissioner files a legal judgment with the local Superior Court.

The dashboard also allows the user to obtain information about the employer who violated the Labor Code, including the employer's name, type of industry of the employer, date of judgment, and judgment amount.

 

For further instructions on how to utilize the dashboard please review the Wage Theft Judgment PowerbI Instructions or watch the video below.

*Disclaimer: This public data was obtained from the California Division of Labor Standards and Enforcement (DLSE) website. Per DLSE:

"Once the judgment is issued, the judgment balance is shown as due in the Labor Commissioner's records. This amount does not reflect post-judgment interest, costs or other amounts that may be added to the judgment after issuance. Furthermore, this does not reflect any payments that may have been made since the judgment was issued. Defendants often make payments to claimants directly without the knowledge of the Labor Commissioner's Office. Thus, judgments shown as open/unpaid may have been paid in whole or in part, if the defendant did not notify the Labor Commissioner that the claim has been subsequently satisfied."

Current data will be removed and replaced with updated data on a quarterly basis. The Office of Labor Standards and Enforcement (OLSE) is not responsible for the accuracy of this information. If you believe any of the information is inaccurate, please contact DLSE at 833-LCO-INFO (833) 526-4636 or DLSE2@dir.ca.gov

Defendant addresses were geocoded and joined to the zip code and municipal boundaries as used by the County. This may be different than the reported address.
