WHY TAKING YOUR BREAKS HELPS EVERYONE GET MORE HOURS

1/16/2018

1 Comment

 
If you work off the clock (before work, after work, or during your breaks) you are getting more work done than Management paid for.  The company is responsible to ensure all workers take their breaks.  If you do not take your break, you are working minutes for free that someone else could be paid for.  Minutes add up to hours, which add up to weeks.  If the Employer knowingly allows you to work off the clock, this is a violation of the law  and you should contact your Union Rep.

I love how well written this is!

I'm going to copy and paste this to my social media to help my fellow UFCW Local 401 members understand why I am constantly talking about working off the clock.
