Pending court approval, Chipotle has agreed to pay $8 million to settle a 2012 lawsuit alleging it misclassified management trainees as exempt from overtime. The agreement will resolve claims
that the apprentices should have been paid time-and-a-half for hours worked beyond 40 in a workweek. “This marks the latest in a string of labor-related settlements for the Mexican chain,”
including one regarding sexual harassment and retaliation, per Restaurant Dive.
