The petition of the day is:
16-1189
Issues: (1) Whether the Fair Labor Standards Act prohibits an employer from using compensation paid to employees for non-compensable, bona fide meal breaks that it included in their regular rate of pay as a credit against compensation owed for work time; and (2) whether an agency’s interpretation of a statute advanced for the first time in litigation is entitled to Skidmore v. Swift & Co. deference.
