Denny’s is an American family restaurant chain. The company was founded in 1963, and today its headquarters can be found in Spartanburg, South Carolina. It operates over 1,500 locations throughout the United States and the rest of the world. Recently, however, there have been concerns over Denny’s employees in California not being paid overtime, or working off the clock.
Often, Denny’s employees in California are required to work double shifts, or additional time before their scheduled shift. With the exception of some higher management positions, Denny’s is required by law to pay overtime wages to workers who have worked more than 40 hours per week. Denny’s has denied or unlawfully refused to pay overtime to California workers by misclassifying the position of the workers, requiring them to report to work before their scheduled shift but not clock in, striking hours off of employees time cards, or not paying them for work completed after they have punched out for the day. All these scenarios are violations of the United States Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and can give rise to an overtime pay lawsuit.
