Frequently Asked Questions
Is opening food prep before clocking in paid work?
When your employer requires you to prep before your shift starts, it may count as work in some states. Rules differ by state.
What if I did it after clocking out?
Being clocked out does not by itself decide whether the time was work. What applies depends on your state.
What if the kitchen could not open without the prep?
Work that the business depends on may count as work time. What applies depends on your state.
What records help my claim?
Prep lists, schedules, manager messages and pay stubs help show the time.
How long do I have to make a claim?
Deadlines depend on your state and the type of claim.
Does YesLawyer help with opening food prep pay in every state?
YesLawyer connects people with lawyers across the country, though state and case eligibility apply. Whether your claim can be taken depends on your state and the facts of your case.
