Sorry; they are entitled to a 20 minute break if they work over 6 hours. Whether it is paid or not is down to the company.

Union member all my life, thank you very much.0 -
I lasted 4 years. I was drawn in to believe HR was an intermediary between management and staff; people champions as they like to call themselves.

HR are there to protect the company from litigation. That's their job. Anyone who thinks otherwise is misguided.0
