Thousands of workers could soon launch a class-action lawsuit against fast-food behemoth KFC over claims the company improperly denied them 10-minute rest breaks.
Lily O’Sullivan worked at an Illawarra region outlet in NSW from 2019-2020 and said her request for a break was rejected.
KFC workers under a 2020 enterprise agreement are entitled to a paid 10-minute break after four hours of work and a second paid break after eight hours. “They are hot, they are working fast, there is no let-up, there are cameras on them all the time,” he said.
