VENTURA, Calif., Sept. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Los Angeles employment law attorneys, at Blumenthal Nordrehaug Bhowmik De Blouw LLP, filed a class action complaint alleging that Johnson Controls Fire Protection LP violated the California Labor Code. The Johnson Controls Fire Protection LP class action lawsuit, Case No. 2025CUOE049338, is currently pending in the Ventura County Superior Court of the State of California. A copy of the Complaint can be read here.
The lawsuit alleges Johnson Controls Fire Protection LP failed to provide employees with legally required meal and rest breaks. Specifically, employees were allegedly required from time to time to work in excess of four (4) hours without being provided ten (10) minute rest periods. The applicable California Wage Order requires employers to provide employees with off-duty rest periods, which the California Supreme Court defined as time during which an employee is relieved from all work related duties and free from employer control.
Additional allegations include Johnson Controls Fire Protection LP failing to reimburse employees for required business expenses. California Labor Code Section 2802 expressly states that “an employer shall indemnify his or her employee for all necessary expenditures or losses incurred by the employee in direct consequence of the discharge of his or her duties…” During employment, Plaintiff and other California Class Members were allegedly required to use their personal cellular phones as a result of and in furtherance of their job duties.
