Missed or Interrupted Break Details

• Primary Reason the Meal Break Was Missed or Interrupted
• Additional Details
  Provide as much detail as possible. This narrative may be used in wage claim investigations.
• I understand that if a compliant meal break was not provided, I may be entitled to one additional hour of pay at my regular rate of pay per applicable state law.
• I confirm this waiver was entirely voluntary and I was not pressured or coerced by management.
  Required only if you selected 'voluntarily waived' above. Mutual written waivers may be required by your state (e.g., CA Labor Code §512(a) for shifts under 6 hours).
