  "coverage_note": "This dataset holds PAGA notices filed with the California Labor and Workforce Development Agency. Coverage starts on 1 January 2026. That is where the query window of the one historical load this dataset has had begins, and nothing earlier than it was ever loaded on purpose. Since 4 September 2026 a pull has run every day, querying that day and the three days before it, so a notice the agency posts late is picked up over the days that follow. The agency's own search filters on the date a notice was posted rather than the date it was filed, so a small number of notices carry a filing date from before 2026. Those are notices reposted inside the 2026 window, and they are not historical coverage. The agency publishes no completeness guarantee and its search gives no way to confirm that it returned every matching record, so any count built from this dataset is what was collected rather than a certified count of what exists.",
