C Casa restaurant permanently closes due to child labor violations

Credited from: SFGATE

  • C Casa, a notable restaurant located in Napa’s Oxbow Public Market, has officially closed all its locations following findings of child labor violations by the U.S. Department of Labor.
  • The investigation revealed that minors as young as 14 were employed, working outside permitted hours during school days and handling hazardous equipment.
  • As a result of these violations, C Casa faced fines totaling $48,870, which included penalties for both child labor and the treatment of a nursing employee.
  • Catherine Bergen, the restaurant's owner, expressed her disappointment in the Department of Labor's announcements and intentions to challenge the fines through legal means.
  • The closure marks the end of C Casa’s 15-year presence in the community, and Oxbow Public Market is in the process of searching for a new tenant.
