Last week, the Ninth Circuit issued its decision in Sullivan v. Oracle Corp. and held that non-California residents are covered under California labor laws for any work performed within the state of California.  The plaintiffs in the case were instructors who traveled to different states, including California, to train customers on the use of Oracle software.  The plaintiffs worked between approximately five and thirty-five days per year in California.  The rest of time they worked in other states.  The plaintiffs alleged that Oracle misclassified them as exempt and failed to pay them daily and/or weekly overtime.  The Ninth Circuit held that California wage and hour law, including its daily overtime requirement, applied to the days and weeks the plaintiffs worked in California.

In reaching its decision, the Ninth Circuit relied on Tidewater Marine Western, Inc. v. Bradshaw, 14 Cal.4th 557 (1996) wherein the California Supreme Court stated that "California employment laws implicitly extend to employment occurring within California's state law boundaries."  The issue presented to the court in Tidewater was whether federal law or wage orders of California's Industrial Welfare Commission should apply to California resident crew members who perform work off the coast of California in the Santa Barbara Channel.  The Tidewater Court held that California's wage orders apply to those employees who worked in the Santa Barbara Channel because they were California wage earners as they resided in California,
