If large multinational companies like this are violating employment law I can't even imagine what smaller companies are doing.

- formula1 10y agoProbably not violating laws because they dont have the money to pay for lawyers and politicians
- yardie 10y agoProbably even doing worse because they don't have the money to pay for lawyers nor competent HR if they even have that.
- formula1 10y agoProbably not.
- maxerickson 10y agoThis isn't exactly a high bar we are talking about here. The timings of legally required breaks is the kind of thing you put on a one page summary that you give to anyone doing management of people that get those breaks.
- yardie 10y agoLegally required breaks are the low hanging fruit of labor disputes. A lot of small businesses really fuck it up by: misclassification of exempt employees, 1099 vs W-2 employees, overtime, inadequate safety equipment, inadequate safety training. Granted, some of these are because the SMB owner was simply uninformed, like OSHA violations. Overtime is quite malicious though ie. you work 60 hours this week, and 20 hours next week, manager moves that 20 hours OT onto next week, thus denying you overtime.
