updates: The new information includes the implementation of a $20 minimum wage for fast food workers in California, affecting half a million workers. The law applies to major restaurant chains and has raised concerns among local franchisees. Some workers feel that $20 is still not enough to feel financially secure in expensive cities like Los Angeles. The wage increase may lead to consequences such as higher prices, automation, reduced work hours, and closures for restaurant chains and franchisees. The increase is a result of a deal struck by labor leaders and fast-food companies, and it applies to fast-food chains with at least 60 locations nationwide. A new council has been formed to develop standards, rules, and regulations for the fast-food industry in California. Advocates hope that the increase in fast-food pay will spread to other industries in the state and across the country.
