Question:

A compensation consultant recommends that a restaurant do the following:

1) Keep accurate wage and hour records and retain them for at least a year; 

2) Pay table servers $2.13/hr and require them to share their tips with other employees; 

3) Require employees to pay for their own uniforms and deduct the cost from their paychecks; 

4) Increase productivity by reducing meal periods (unpaid) from one hour to 20 minutes and eliminating all other breaks; 

5) Since it should only take half an hour to clean up after the restaurant closes, don’t pay employees for any more time than that; 

6) Require that any non-exempt, full-time employees who work over 8 hours a day take that time off later in the same workweek; 

7) Don’t worry about paying overtime to shift supervisors because they are paid a weekly salary; 

8) To prevent work from interfering with their studies, limit minors (under 16) to no more than 8 hours a day during the school year.


Would implementing any of the consultant’s suggestions create legal problems? Which suggestions? What problems? Should the restaurant find a new consultant?
