What is the difference between an applicant and an employee?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Fowler v. Cedars-Sinai Med. Ctr., B254874 (Cal. App. 2014):
Section 432.7 distinguishes between applicants and employees not only in the scope of protection afforded, but also with regard to the available remedies. Treble damages and certain other statutory remedies are available only to applicants, whereas employees are entitled only to actual damages. ( 432.7, subd. (c);2 Faria v. San Jacinto Unified School Dist. (1996) 50 Cal.App.4th 1939, 1947.)
