FAQ
Employers must get an employee's written agreement in advance for taking on duty meals. Workers must also be able to withdraw their consent to this arrangement at any time. In California, ing to labor laws, employees can waive their lunch break if their work shift is six hours or less.
Employers who make it difficult or impossible for their workers to take these legally-protected breaks owe their workers compensation for forcing them to miss their breaks. Should they fail to provide this compensation, these employers could face a lawsuit based on California law.
