Explicación
Labor Code §1174 requires employers to keep accurate records of employees' names, addresses, occupations, ages of minors, and payroll data showing hours worked daily and wages paid. These records must be maintained (generally for at least 3 years) and be open to DLSE inspection. Paying in cash does not eliminate recordkeeping duties; in fact, missing records create a presumption in the employee's favor in wage disputes.
