Giải thích
Because employers have the legal duty to keep accurate time and pay records (Labor Code §1174), when those records are missing or inaccurate, the employee may carry the burden with a reasonable estimate of hours worked, and the burden then shifts to the employer to rebut it. This rule (echoing the federal Anderson v. Mt. Clemens standard) prevents employers from benefiting from their own recordkeeping failures.
