Food Delivery's Latest Fight

The Lempert Report
January 12, 2024

There's a new California law that took effect January 1st that the minimum wage goes up to $20 for fast food restaurants. Those restaurants that have 60 or more locations throughout the nation have to comply with this. As a result, what's happened is two Pizza Hut franchisees have decided to fire their drivers. 1,200 people get fired because being paid $20 an hour doesn't work. Now they're making about $16 an hour, so we're talking about the difference of about $4.
