Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), employers generally are not required to provide meal periods or rest breaks. However, many states have their own laws that require meal breaks based on the length of an employee's shift.

But here's the important part:

If an employer does provide an unpaid meal break, the employee must be completely relieved of all work duties during that time.

That means if you're:
📞 Answering phones
👋 Greeting customers
📧 Monitoring emails
🔧 Remaining on duty in any capacity
..the meal period may need to be paid.

This is a common area of confusion for both employers and employees. Whether a meal break is required depends on state law, but whether it can be unpaid depends on whether the employee is truly free from work responsibilities.

A good reminder that compliance isn't just about offering a break, it's about how that break is actually spent.

Let’s be honest: compliance is one of those areas that most businesses assume is under control… until it's not.

ERISA, ACA, COBRA, 5500 filings—it’s an alphabet soup of regulations, and the rules keep changing. Many companies don’t realize they’re at risk until a costly audit, fine, or lawsuit hits.

Let’s connect and make sure your business is protected and get you the best benefits possible.

The Federal Trade Commission voted in 2024 to ban most non-competes nationwide, but that rule is currently tied up in legal challenges and not fully in effect as of now. Definitely take time to read up on what is legal in your state and expect updates in the future.

When an employee is on FMLA leave, employers often face the challenge of covering their responsibilities. While occasional communication may be necessary in some situations, employers should be cautious about contacting employees who are on leave.

Excessive work-related communication or demands during FMLA leave can lead to claims of FMLA interference. Understanding the balance between business needs and employee rights is key to staying compliant.
