Attestation column for California accounts

For accounts in the California jurisdiction, the Labor Exceptions Report includes an attestation column. The status in that column comes from whether the employee's response to the Meal break attestation question is affirmative or negative. Use the table below to see what triggers each status.

For setup, see Attestation Management. To dismiss waived meal breaks automatically, see California Labor Compliance - More Tools.
