In Morillion v. Royal Packing Co. (2000) 22 Cal.4th 575 [ 94 Cal.Rptr.2d 3 , 995 P.2d 139 ] (Morillion), the California Supreme Court held that employees must be compensated for travel time when their employer requires them to travel to a work site on employer-provided buses. Plaintiff, a former Disneyland employee, was assigned parking in a lot one mile from the employee entrance to Disneyland. Disney provided a shuttle from this lot to the employee entrance. Plaintiff brought a proposed class action on behalf of all Disney employees who parked in the satellite lot, seeking compensation for their travel time on the shuttle.
