Chipotle stock tumbles after New York City sues the restaurant chain, alleging labor law violations
More than 30 Chipotle employees have filed complaints with the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection, alleging that the restaurant chain has violated New York City’s Workweek Law. This law requires fast-food employers to schedule workers in a more safe and consistent manner. Workers have alleged that Chipotle has not sought employee consent prior to making last-minute schedule changes, and continues to ask employees to work consecutive closing and opening shifts. In addition to illegal scheduling practices, the DCWP has found that Chipotle has an unlawful sick leave policy.
