Walmart truck drivers should have been paid for their rest breaks, and now the company is going to have to pay up.
According to Business Insider, the drivers are the latest to win in federal court for unpaid rest breaks.
The US Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals just affirmed that Walmart will need to pay its California truck drivers $54.6 million.
