CA's "Fast Act" goes live April 1. If you don't think it applies to your business, take Ice Cube's sage advice and "check yourself before you wreck yourself." It applies to far more businesses than many think (and not just "fast food restaurants"), as recent CA guidance indicates (see article below).
