Snack and Smoking Breaks - Cleaning Employee Labor Laws

Snack and smoking breaks on the job. What are the cleaning employee labor laws and do you have to pay for snack and smoking breaks?

What does the Department of Labor say about snack and smoking breaks for contract labor, pay, and fair labor practices?

Angela Brown says state regulations trump FLSA (Fair Labor Standard Act) in some areas. She talks required breaks, pay, earnings, holiday pay, vacations, wages, and overtime.

If you're the boss a resting period is fair and shows you're a caring employer.

Today's #AskaHouseCleaner sponsors are Savvy Cleaner (Training and certification for house cleaners and maids.) And Savvy Perks (Employee benefits for cleaning business owners and their maid service team.)
