G3400.07e - Breaks and Meal Periods

A rest break of at least ten (10) minutes must be provided during each half shift (four hours on an 8-hour shift or five hours on a 10 hour shift), approximately mid way in the period.

Employees are provided at least a thirty (30) minutes meal period for any shift six (6) hours or more in length. This time is unpaid as long as an employee is relieved of all duties.

Neither breaks nor meal periods may be taken at the beginning or end of the work period.
