Work at KFC? Read this important update about the KFC Breaks Class Action

KFC and its franchisees have agreed to pay around $28.8 million to settle claims brought by the SDA and other applicants in the KFC Rest Breaks Class Action.

If you worked at a KFC store between October 2017 – December 2023 you may be eligible for compensation. Register online by 26 June 2026 to ensure you don’t miss out. 

Registering online takes less than 2 minutes and is confidential – details of your claim will not be provided to KFC.

You will be eligible if you:

  • worked at a KFC store between 25 October 2017 – 22 December 2023;
  • worked shifts of 4 hours or more; and
  • did not receive 10 minute rest breaks on all shifts of 4 hours or more.

The Court will decide whether to approve the settlement at a hearing in September 2026.

Please note that if you worked at a KFC store operated by Airport Retail Enterprises, there is a separate settlement. You do not need to register to claim your share of that settlement.
