employee meals

Workers' provided lunches

Employee meals are food provided by an employer to workers, typically in the restaurant and hospitality industries.

Kitchen staff often eat together before service begins, or servers grab food during breaks.

The practice builds camaraderie and lets workers sample menu items: The employee meal tonight is pasta with whatever vegetables are about to turn.

Also called staff meal or family meal.
