Meal Period Waivers
Digital waivers help ensure you don’t get taken to lunch in a wage and hour lawsuit
Cal Comply’s online Meal Period Waivers help employers comply with meal period rules, help minimize class and PAGA exposure, and create audit-ready records—all without paper forms or manual tracking that burden your HR teams.
In California, employers must prove they provided employees with meal periods at the right time and of the proper duration, or they risk a class action and/or PAGA lawsuit that could result in 6-, 7-, or even 8-figure exposure depending on company size.
Signed meal period waivers allow employees to choose not to take meal breaks on certain occasions, but if waivers are lost, invalid, or misfiled, exposure skyrockets.
Cal Comply makes managing meal period waivers simple, digital, and secure:
No more chasing down paper forms or deciphering messy handwriting. Employees can complete waivers in seconds through Cal Comply, anytime, anywhere, with any device.
Forget filing cabinets stuffed with fading documents. Cal Comply securely stores waivers in the cloud, with instant retrieval for audits or disputes, saving you time and stress.
Employees can sign waivers from any device, with legally binding electronic signatures, timestamps, and a full audit trail. Admins receive real-time notifications when a waiver is signed or declined.
Developed by wage and hour experts, our waiver aligns perfectly with California law and wage orders, ensuring every detail is legally sound.
Labor laws evolve, and so do we. We continuously refine our waiver to reflect the latest regulations, so you’re never caught off guard by new requirements.
With clear, voluntary, and shift-specific waivers, you’ll have ironclad records to protect against costly penalties or lawsuits—peace of mind backed by legal expertise.
Picture this: a single missed meal period waiver sparks a class action lawsuit, costing you thousands per employee. In California, meal break violations are a plaintiff’s attorney’s dream—easy to allege, tough to disprove without rock-solid records. Cal Comply’s online waivers turn this nightmare into a non-issue, giving you:
Time-stamped, signed waivers show employees voluntarily opted out, shutting down claims before they start.
A searchable digital archive puts every waiver at your fingertips, ready for any records request.
With compliance locked in, you focus on running your business, not fighting legal battles.
