To: All California EmployeesFrom: Amey Hildebrand, HR ManagerDate: September 12, 2019Re: Updated Meal and Break Policy and PracticesFaro Services, Inc. has updated its Breaks and Meal Periods policy for California employees as set forth below. In addition, as you are aware, non-exempt employees have the option to waive a second meal period on shifts over 10 hours but less than 12 hours. In order to better track these waivers, we have attached a form here for you to complete and return to me or your supervisor if you wish to waive your second meal period on shifts of over 10 hours, but less than 12 hours. Please note that if your shift is ever going to exceed 12 hours, you must take a second meal period before the end of your 10th hour of work. Breaks And Meal PeriodsNonexempt employees must take one paid ten-minute break for every 4 hours worked or major fraction thereof. Nonexempt employees who work more than 5 hours must take an unpaid meal break that begins before the end of the fifth hour of work. Nonexempt employees who work more than 10 hours must take a second unpaid meal break that begins before the end of the tenth hour of work. Employees are generally provided 60-minutes for these meal breaks; however, in no case will an employee be provided with less than 30 minutes for meal breaks, An employee may not vary his or her assigned ten-minute break and meal break without the prior approval of his or her supervisor. Breaks cannot be consolidated with any other rest or meal breaks. Rest breaks should be taken as close to the middle of each work period as possible. All meal and rest breaks are to be off-duty and shall be uninterrupted by work. If an employee misses a rest or meal break for any reason, or if the meal break is late or less than 30 minutes for work-related reasons, it is the responsibility of both the employee and the supervisor to inform Human Resources to determine if additional wages are owed to the employee.If you have questions and/or concerns about this new policy please reach out to your supervisor, or me at amey.hildebrand@ or at (614) 497-1700 x146.
