Equal Opportunity Employer

Expert Staffing West is an Equal Opportunity Employer and prohibits discrimination and harassment of any kind. We are committed to the principle of equal employment opportunity for all people and to hire and promote individuals solely based on their qualifications for the job.

In compliance with applicable federal, state/provincial, and local laws, employment decisions are based on business needs, job requirements, and an individual’s qualifications regardless of race, color, religious creed, national origin, ancestry, age, gender, pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, familial status, disability, genetic information or protected veteran status. We do not tolerate discrimination or harassment based on any of these characteristics and expect that our employees and associates will cooperate in maintaining an atmosphere free of discrimination and harassment.

Meal & Rest Breaks (CA Labor Code)

California law requires the following for most non-exempt employees:

Paid rest breaks:
You must receive a paid 10-minute rest break for every 4 hours worked (or major fraction thereof).
Meal breaks:
You must receive an unpaid 30-minute meal break if you work more than 5 hours in a workday.
A second 30-minute meal break is required if you work more than 10 hours, unless legally waived.

You must be relieved of all duties during your meal break. If you are not provided a required break, you may be entitled to premium pay.

If a client site does not relieve you of duties to take required breaks, notify us immediately.

Harassment & Discrimination Protections

California law prohibits harassment, discrimination, and retaliation based on protected characteristics, including but not limited to:

Race, color, ancestry
National origin or immigration status
Sex, gender, gender identity or expression
Sexual orientation
Age (40+)
Disability or medical condition
Religion
Pregnancy or family status

These protections apply at all client worksites.
Harassment does not have to come from a supervisor to be unlawful.

If you experience or witness inappropriate conduct, report it promptly.
