Important Notice Regarding SRMC Checks to Employees

Monday, December 01, 2008

The union has been notified of employees at SRMC who have received checks from SRMC from their flex spending accounts that have bounced. If you have been affected you may contact the Union to notify us so we can document the complaint. If you are affected you may file a claim with the State Labor Commissioner’s Office by calling 530 225-2655. Alternatively you can file out a claim form available at http://www.dir.ca.gov/dlse/HowToFileWageClaim.htm.
Employees filing complaints or claims must be able to provide proof of the NSF status of the check (NFS stamp or other correspondence from the bank indicating NFS status) as well as proof of the number of days the check is no good. State law provides a penalty against employers writing NSF checks to employees equal to one full day of wages for each and every day that the check is written on insufficient funds.
Please contact the union office for any more information if you have any confusion with how to proceed with this type of claim.
