At October 3, 2010, we had approximately 29,300 employees, of whom 27,600 were restaurant employees, 1,000 were corporate
personnel, 300 were distribution employees and 400 were field management and administrative personnel. Employees are paid on an
hourly basis, except certain restaurant managers, operations and corporate management, and certain administrative personnel. We employ
both full and part-time restaurant employees in order to provide the flexibility necessary during peak periods of restaurant operations.
We have not experienced any significant work stoppages and believe our labor relations are good. Over the last several years, we have
realized improvements in our hourly restaurant employee retention rate. We support our employees, including part-time workers, by
offering competitive wages and benefits. Furthermore, we offer all hourly employees meeting certain minimum service requirements access
to health coverage, including vision and dental benefits. As an additional incentive to team members with more than a year of service, we
will pay a portion of their health insurance premiums. We also provide our restaurant employees with a program called “Sed de Saber”
(Thirst for Knowledge), an electronic home study program to assist Spanish-speaking restaurant employees in improving their English
skills. We believe these programs have contributed to lower turnover, training costs and workers’ compensation claims.
