Episode Details

La Panadería Bakery Café in San Antonio is facing a $45,000 penalty after federal investigators uncovered serious labor law violations across three locations — including underage workers on overnight shifts, unpaid minimum wage hours, and miscalculated overtime. The Department of Labor fined the company over $25,000 for child labor infractions and another $19,000 for back wages owed. The bakery claims minors were with parents and not officially employed, and says it’s working to fix policies with consultants — but compliance with labor laws can’t be an accident. This case serves as a wake-up call for all businesses: pay your workers right, protect young employees, and stay legally compliant or face steep consequences.
