Singh v. Superior Court (2006)
Alternative Workweek Schedules for Nurses The 3-Day, 12-Hour Shift Schedule In Singh v.…
At RN Counsel, we know the sacrifices nurses and other healthcare workers make every single day. Long hours. Emotional labor. Physical demands. And too often, employers who violate labor laws — forcing nurses to work through breaks, withholding overtime pay, misclassifying them as independent contractors, or creating unsafe staffing levels.
We are California attorneys who focus exclusively on representing nurses and other healthcare workers in wage, hour, and workplace rights cases. Whether you’re working directly for a hospital or a clinic or a traveling nurse on contract, we protect the people who protect us.
