Chipotle to Pay $20 Million over Worker Protection Violations
-------------------------------------------------------------

Here in New York City, the fast-food chain Chipotle has agreed to pay a
potential $20 million as part of a settlement over violations of worker
protection laws. The city contended that Chipotle violated scheduling
and sick-leave laws for 13,000 employees over the course of four years.
It's the largest settlement of its kind in New York City's history.
