If I’m not mistaken this is illegal in the US?? While in the checkout line my cashier, a young woman prob late teens early 20s, said to a senior employee, prob dept or floor manager, “hey I decided not to sign the paper we got about opting out of taking our 30 min break and I’m on a 6 hour shift today so I just wanted you to know so you can send me.” So the manager says “oh you had to sign it so idk.” And then the manager walked away. I told the cashier that that sounded really shady and that it had to be some sort of labor law violation. I said good for you for not signing that stupid shit and that she should take any break she’s entitled to.
My question is who should I report this to? I am in Maine and have worked in a a retail setting and it was always imperative that hourly workers take their required breaks.
