Legal Question in Workers Comp in California
I was assaulted at work. I work night shift at a 24 hour eatery and while I was on my break a crazy person on drugs came in a physically attacked me. There is no security in the shopping center and there is no employee break room where I can take a break. What are my rights? I'm scared to work night shifts again, is my employer responsible for giving me better hours. What are the employers responsibilities?
