the premises throughout their shifts, and that these employees
deserved meals for having to stay on the premises. Management
also believed that it was not essential to petitioners' operation
to keep the remaining 20 to 25 percent of the employees on the
premises throughout their shifts, but petitioners would generally
require these employees to stay on the premises, and offer them
meals, as a matter of consistency. The meals that petitioners
provide to their employees include hot meals, cold foods, and
snacks (collectively referred to as the meals). Petitioners
provide the meals to their employees as a form of compensation,
and petitioners’ provision of the meals is not discriminatory in
favor of highly compensated employees.
Petitioners provide the meals to the employees at each
Property in a private employee cafeteria (the Cafeteria) that is
located on the Property's premises. Each of the Properties owns
and operates its Cafeteria, and each Cafeteria is separate from
the public restaurants located on the Properties, which, in turn,
are separate from the alcohol bars on the premises. Employees
receive the meals without charge, and it is petitioners' policy
to provide the meals in the Cafeterias only to employees.
Petitioners occasionally serve in the Cafeterias the surplus food
from their banquets or buffets. Petitioners do not quantify the
amount of surplus food consumed in the Cafeterias, and they do
not accurately account for any of the food served in the
Cafeterias. Petitioners keep no records that identify how many
