Amendments Alleviate Not Eliminate Employer PAGA Burdens

“PAGA is a statute that's not employer-friendly, but one of the benefits of this last year is that we had some amendments come through that did, for lack of a better phrase, throw employers a little bit of a bone when it came to dealing with PAGA cases. One benefit is an expanded ability to cure labor code violations. The other involves arbitration and our ability to fight these claims and not just have to wait to trial to do it.”  Chapters 00:00 Navigating Workplace Law in 2025 00:45 Introduction to PAGA and Its Challenges 03:11 Recent Amendments and Their Implications 06:04 Understanding Penalties and Compliance 09:06 Standing Requirements and Legal Developments 12:00 PAGA vs. Arbitration: Current Landscape 14:50 Conclusion and Future Outlook
