EmpleoPregunta 977 de 1605
A worker's pay stub lists only a 'DBA' trade name and no legal entity name or address. Why can this violate Labor Code §226?
a.Pay stubs cannot use any abbreviations
b.It is fine because the employee knows where they work
c.Trade names are always illegal
d.Section 226 requires the legal name and address of the employer so the worker can identify and, if needed, sue the correct entity
Explicación
Labor Code §226(a) requires the wage statement to show the name and address of the legal employer. Listing only a DBA without the legal entity name and address can leave the employee unable to identify the proper party to hold accountable in a wage dispute, which is a §226 violation. Accurate employer identification protects the worker's ability to enforce wage rights.
