      Hospitals face significant challenges in their efforts to comply with the labyrinth of rules and regulations that comprise both state and federal wage and hour laws. California's wage and hour rules are the most complicated and stringent in the country, and the federal rules are also important, as they occasionally fill the gaps not addressed by state law. The wage and hour rules affect every phase of the employment relationship, from the time employees are hired until they leave, and sometimes even thereafter.
