I don't really understand what's being implied here. Isn't 30 > 15?
The 15 minute breaks were paid.
Now they are only getting the mandatory 30 minute paid break for lunch (which they only have to do if you work over 5 hours in a shift).
They still get the legally mandated 15 minute breaks; they just aren't paid for it.
You get mandatory 30 min paid breaks? For me it's unpaid lol.
Scheduled for 5 hours, no 30 minutes necessary.
Scheduled for 5.5 hours, you get 30 minute unpaid break so you are there for longer but make the same amount of money
I'm in California, so I get paid breaks, but unpaid lunch. It still comes out to the same as the employees of the place in the meme, really. 🤷♂️
Still getting an hour of time not working; only getting paid for 30 minutes of that time.
My guess is they probably previously had 1 or 2 15-minute paid breaks, and a 30-minute unpaid lunch break. But now they only get the unpaid break.
Bingo. Lots of states have an optional set of 15 minute breaks that are in my state often referred to as smoking breaks because the Midwest is still in large part stuck in 1910.
