Missed Meal And Rest Breaks Can Add Up For California Employers
The California Court of Appeal added yet another wrinkle to California's wage and hour laws. On February 16, 2011, in United Parcel Service. v. Superior Court, the appellate court held that the California Labor Code allows employees to recover up to two premium payments (or two additional hours of pay) for meal and rest period violations on a single work day, one for failure to provide a meal period and another for failure to provide a rest break.
