According to the lawsuit, KFC allegedly violated
California Labor Code Sections ยงยง 201, 202, 203, 204, 210, 226,
226.7, 246, 351, 510, 512, 558, 1194, 1197, 1197.1, 1198 and 2802
by failing to: (1) pay minimum wages; (2) pay overtime wages; (3)
provide required meal and rest periods; (4) provide accurate
itemized wage statements; (5) provide wages when due; (6) reimburse
for required business expenses; and (7) provide gratuities.
As a result of their rigorous work schedules, KFC employees were
allegedly unable to take off duty meal breaks and were
not fully relieved of duty for meal periods. Specifically, the
lawsuit alleges employees were from time to time
interrupted during their off-duty meal breaks to complete tasks for
KFC. Employees were allegedly required to perform work
as ordered by KFC for more than five (5) hours during a shift
without receiving an off-duty meal break. Further, the lawsuit
alleges KFC failed to provide employees with a second
off-duty meal period each workday in which these employees were
required by KFC to work ten (10) hours of work. The policy of KFC,
allegedly caused employees to remain on-call and on
duty during what was supposed to be their off-duty meal periods.
Employees therefore allegedly forfeited meal breaks
without additional compensation and in accordance with the strict
corporate policy and practice of KFC.
