Another Scientology labor violation suit

In January two plaintiffs sued Scientology in LA county superior for employment violations; working overtime without adequate compensation and no basic vacation or other benefits.  Scientology has argued that this wasn’t an employment situation as member voluntarily joined the church.

Now comes another suit filed in LA county superior against Scientology by the same attorney.   In addition to the previous allegations, here are some new ones:

It challenges Scientology’s practice of using what it calls a “primitive lie detector” to interrogate its employees in security checks. It questions the legal validity of the Sea Org employment contracts, as well as the waiver forms and other documents it says they are required to sign if they leave. It accuses Scientology officials of trying to discourage potential witnesses in the lawsuits through bribery and intimidation.
