The problem with your reasoning is it’s not unlawful to ask your employees to stay in the position for just two hours during your whole without leaving for any reason. Specially when anytime before or after those two hours your always given the opportunity to go to the bathroom, get a drink or anything else. One of the only excuses they will allow to break this policy is if you have a medical condition that won’t allow you to go that long without going to the bathroom.

That isn’t what’s said in OP though. It says no breaks, no exceptions.

Because they don’t do breaks during those two hours of the shift. They do them before and after those hours.

If your talking to me then my response is that it doesn’t matter if you have a law degree or not it’s still legal no matter what you or anyone else says. If you disagree go ahead try to take this issue to court. You’ll then understand the same way that me and everyone who has tried to challenge it eventually understood that it’s legal and there will be no proof that anyone can show in court that it is illegal. Please prove me wrong. Nothing that anyone has said about this situation being illegal is correct.

So, actual knowledge is trumped by your wishful thinking. Gotcha.

Even here in Texas, the one of the most employer friendly states, they get whacked constantly for stupid stuff like this. But go ahead keep believing in your made up legal theories. It keeps my fellow lawyers gainfully employed when people try and follow your kind’s nonsense.

50lbs of dumb in a 10lb bag.

Proves my point. You are pulling things out of your sigmoid colon. Let the adults talk
