Under PAGA provisions, employees have the standing to sue their employers on behalf of themselves, their colleagues, or the state on matters related to wage and hour violations, paid leave, employee classification, and other Labor Code violations. If PAGA lawsuits are successful, employees can recover civil penalties, with 25% set aside for the aggrieved employees and 75% for the state. In granting employees the right to sue, California deviates from the standard practice in other states that reserve the right to bring Labor Code violation lawsuits to the Attorney General.
