    I hate the Kardashians and wish they’d just crawl under a rock already, but if this was all done by other staff how can she sue Kylie? I’m not sure how that part of the legal system works. And again, fuck the Kardashians.

    A Salvadoran ?!! I’m riding for my fellow Salvadoreños the amount of stories I’ve heard from friends of family or family who work in housekeeping and how they belittle them for their accents , appearances or culture

    I’m really curious how stuff like this works unless she has recordings or someone willing to vouch, how can they sue that this happened?

  4. Just a reminder that the Kardashian/Jenner family is trash and you should stop supporting ALL of their businesses that keep them wealthy.

    I work for a different country but this is what I’ve learned when helping some of the foreigners who have gotten hellishly rough experiences with really rich employers in the US.

    In California, a private household employing domestic staff may be deemed an employer under the Domestic Worker Bill of Rights (Lab. Code §1450 et seq.), wage laws, and anti-harassment statutes. Now a home can not be exempt merely because it is a residence. Employers can face vicarious liability for abuse, bullying, discrimination, or harassment committed by supervisors, family members exercising authority, or co-workers acting within the scope of employment.

    Under the Fair Employment and Housing Act (Gov. Code §12940 et seq.), employers have a duty to prevent and promptly correct harassment based on religion, race, national origin, ancestry, or similar protected traits, and to prevent a hostile work environment. Failure to act where the employer knew or should have known may create direct liability. Employers cannot permit sectarian hostility, derogatory remarks, forced religious practices, exclusion, or threats targeted at domestic staff. Nor may they retaliate against any worker for complaining, reporting abuse, or cooperating in an investigation.

    California courts, including State Dept. of Health Services v. Superior Court and Roby v. McKesson Corp., recognize employer responsibility for maintaining workplaces free of harassment and retaliation. Immigration or foreign-worker status does not diminish employee protections under California or federal law. (Also,🖕🧊)

    Put simply: A household employer cannot hide behind the walls of a private residence. If the home functions as a workplace, the employer must exercise reasonable care, enforce lawful standards, investigate complaints, and ensure every domestic employee is treated with dignity, safety, and equal protection under California law.

    I hope this lady gets her money and that Jenner doesn’t try to settle by handing a Pepsi to all involved parties.

    Outside of everything else wrong here it will never not floor me that it’s always the wealthy people who brag the loudest about how much harder they work everyone else (Timmy & Kardashians/Jenners here) that it turns out have people who do everything for them.

    I’d be a fucking unstoppable grinder turning out ‘top tier’ work consistently if I had a literal army of people who did all the *actual labour* required to be a functioning adult too…

    Nobody reads beyond the headlines anymore. It’s alarming.

    If you read what the actual lawsuit entails, it includes much more than discrimination at the hands of staff.

    Allegations include unpaid work, delayed payment, unpaid sick leave … example is her being sent to clean Timothee Chalamet’s mansion and not being reimbursed for transportation and mileage expenses.
