Record-high inflation is hitting consumers from every angle – gas, groceries, rent – and restaurants tend to be the first place they cut spending. Restaurant traffic, while recovering and up nine percent in 2021 compared to 2020, is still 4 percent below pre-pandemic levels, with smaller chains and independent restaurants down by nine percent, according to a study by The NPD Group.

Labor laws for breaks can be confusing. If you’re an employer, you have to abide by and enforce the regulations that apply to your business. If the breaks are shorter than the allotted amount of time, you have to pay the employees for that time (which could affect overtime). If the breaks are over a certain amount of time, you don’t have to pay the employees but they can’t do any work.
