If she had gotten injued a work it would be a different story. Or been gone due to active duty military,etc.
CA does have a lot of laws that are definitely more in the employees favor, but this one is pretty straight forwad I think. Even though it may not seem fair, especially after 13 years, they don't have to give her the same hours / days back unless she has that specified in an employment contract.
I would not talk to the owner as that woud probably create drama. Your wife's best bet is to just keep working and doing a good job, and through attrition get back to her normal schedule.
