I'm dealing with a situation and need some guidance.

employer monitoring personal phone. I've been dealing with this for about 5 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 1 years. My position is non-exempt and I do have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

What are my legal options here? Is it worth pursuing?

Been there. Here's what I learned.

Don't make the same mistake I did -- is escalating to a supervisor/manager. I'd recommend following the formal complaint procedure instead.

I've dealt with this before.

The thing that gets people is hiring an attorney to send the initial letter. I'd recommend being patient with the process instead sadly.

Reminder that many states have free or low-cost dispute resolution programs run by the state court system. In California, check your county's ADR program — mediation is often available for free or under $200. Much faster than litigation.
