I don't really understand what's being implied here. Isn't 30 > 15?

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.

This is the kind of fucking bullshit that happens when a company goes public. It is no longer about product and productivity; it is about value extraction. The first place it is extracted from is the labor force.
I'm sure any time a policy like this is enacted, it will not increase productivity over the whole shift.

I think this is actually illegal in most states
Only illegal if anyone will actually do anything to protect the workers. Otherwise it's just lip service

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.

Well coincidentally I’ll need to take a 15 minute shit around the time when my 15 minute break used to be.

in Germany it is required by law that you have a 30 minute break if you work for 6 or more hours, and that is federal minimum. Turbo-capitalism ruins a society
The breaks worked similarly when I worked hourly shifts in the US:
- <= 6 hrs: 1x 15m paid break
- > 6 hrs: 1x 30m unpaid lunch, 2x 15m paid breaks
It was most common to be scheduled for 6 hr shifts so the company could avoid paying for the extra break.

For feedback, I would just print off the federal labor codes for my country, highlighting specific sections. I'd just hand it to the management verbatim. I wouldn't cherry pick or leave anything out, just emphasize specific passages.
Guess what? That's illegal here.
It would be a thinly veiled threat that I'll ruin their lives if they don't back track immediately... All said without uttering a single syllable.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk gutted the National Labor Relations Board and (illegally) fired people, including those that were conducting 24 active investigations into Musk's companies. Shit like this is the result of those fascist actions. Boycott Krispy Kreme!

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

wrote on last edited by [email protected]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.
