California Labor Code section 2802 requires employers to reimburse their employees for mileage they incur in the course of their employment. Section 2804 says that employees cannot “waive” (i.e., forfeit) their right to receive reimbursement for miles driven for work.
Employers must reimburse employees for reasonable and necessary work-related expenses. If your travel time becomes compensable (because it meets the requirements above), your travel expenses also become reimbursable. The most common travel expense is mileage.
Under California labor laws, you are entitled to reimbursement for travel expenses or losses directly related to your job. If your employer tries to shortchange you or fails to reimburse you for work-related travel expenses, you may be able to recover compensation by filing a claim or lawsuit.
