Working Hours

Hi There, I work 9.00-18.00 monday-friday with 30 mins break.
Does anyone now what the legal requirements are for break times?

Mudd14

Statutory requirement is 20 mins for a shift of 6 hours +

flea72

20mins for every 6hrs worked

As Mudd14 wrote, it is a minimum of 20 minutes for any shift which lasts more than 6 hours, it is not every 6 hours worked.

Here is a fairly comprehensive guide to legal break times- http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Employment/Employees/WorkingHoursAndTimeOff/DG_10029451

You are receiving 10 minutes more than required.

Happy?

2 15 mins paid or 1 30 minutes paid and 1 hour unpaid.

That may be what you personally get, but that's not the legal minimum that you are entitled to.

Employers are not required to pay you for any breaks.

You must have the opportunity to take 20 mins in any shift which is 6 hours or more.

OP As long as you have 20 mins unpaid they are fulfilling their legal requirement. Google: Working Time Regulations.

Lol, I love how you assume the OP has a problem rather than just trying to find something out.
Why do you hate us all so lina?
