Description

A manager at a convenience store chain worked over 40 hours weekly for approximately two years before being terminated in December 2025, allegedly for not executing a food program despite a broken oven that was being repaired. The termination followed maternity leave taken in October 2024, and the manager alleges retaliation based on reporting harassment by a supervisor and taking FMLA leave, along with potential wage and hour violations including unpaid off-the-clock work (estimated 1-3 hours weekly for tasks like monitoring security cameras and responding to emails) and being required to maintain constant phone availability without compensation.
