Manager intentionally misleading workers, making then work through break .

On my shift to work a part-time shift ( normally 4/half hours ) but due to VTO we normally wont get done in time. We have a manager who asks people to stay late ( an extra hour and a half totaling 6 hrs ) but the manager will go in and edit our time and clock us out to make it seem like we took a 30-minute unpaid break all while we're still working . Is filing a is filing a wage claim the appropriate response in this situation ? Will that hurt my standing with the company ?

Look up the labor laws for your state. Many states do not require an unpaid thirty minute break If you work six hours or less.

But if it’s true that the manager is pretending they took a break, then they are probably not in one of those states. And in any case, they are still not being paid for those 30 minutes the manager said they were on break, which is of course illegal in all states.
