For a little background, we're the only store in a decently sized company that has an overnight shift, so the employee handbook and the policies are explicitly wrong about a lot of stuff that goes on compared to the day shifts.
The doors are locked and we're not allowed to leave, even on our breaks with very few exceptions where a manager deals with the security code to let us out. The employee handbook says we should be allowed to leave but the managers all talk about how we're not allowed to do so overnight, with one manager threatening to fire people who don't take lunches despite not being able to leave. At another point a manager (apparently) said if we clock out and try to leave, were technically trespassing.
I've looked into it a little, and holding us here might count as false imprisonment, and threatening trespassing like that sounds like a threat of entrapment. If they're forcing us to stay like this there might also be some wage theft involved…
Has anyone dealt with a situation like this or is there any advice someone has?
