California Wage Recovery DIY Toolkit

A practical, step-by-step toolkit built for California workers dealing with unpaid wages, underpayment, or unpaid final wages after separation. It helps you organize your numbers, communicate professionally, and keep a clean paper trail—without turning your situation into an emotional back-and-forth.

What’s included (Digital Download):

• Manual Book (PDF): a clear action roadmap + documentation workflow

• Quick Start (1 page): which template to use, when to use it, and how to send with proof

• Editable templates (DOCX/XLSX):

  • Attachment A — Summary Schedule (your structured wage summary)

  • Version A — Reconciliation Notice (good-faith request to reconcile and pay)

  • Version B — Payment Settlement Demand (formal escalation)

  • Follow-Up Log (track each outreach and response)

  • Evidence Checklist (what to gather and how to store privately)

How it works (3 steps):

• Build your summary using Attachment A

• Send Version A and keep proof of sending

• If needed, escalate with Version B and keep your follow-up log consistent

Important boundaries:

• HR ANCHOR is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice or representation

• No outcome guarantees

• We do not review personal evidence or make case-specific determinations
