I earn my bread and butter writing employment contracts and can confirm you are only entitled to a break if you work more than 6 hours. It is certainly illegal for a company to employ someone without issuing a contract of employment, but it happens more often than you may think.

The business about you having to produce written contacts to be taken by the interim company is rubbish. The company that you used to work for will be transferring you to the new employer (TUPE regulations apply). The new employer can then choose to vary your terms (less hours, different holidays etc). You can either sign the new contract offered or leave.

Are there a few of you in the same situation, with no written contract?

The aspect I would be looking at is the legal definition of an employee whether you have a written contract or not;

is there a personal file for you with a written job offer in it - if yes then you are an employee
are you paid electronically directly from the company to you (not via an agency) - if yes then you are probably an employee
do you have wage slips with the employers name on - if yes then you are probably an employee
can you choose what work you do there and/or what hours you work - if no then probably an employee
are you subject to the same terms and conditions as someone with a written contract? - if yes then probably an employee.

I would get back in there and make it clear that you were an employee of the original company who broke the law by not giving you a written contract, show payslips etc and quote TUPE at them. Under TUPE it is not up to you to prove that you worked for them. Do it politely but firmly, then start looking for a new job or hope this company really is just interim and you end up with a better employer.
Sorry Izzey but up to 6 hours gets no legal entitlement to a break. Companies that want to work to the letter of the law can even get you to work 12 hours with just a 20 min break as it is not even cumulative (6 hours =20 mins, 12 hours = 40 mins etc)

Good to see you are keeping busy and things seem to be going well LOgie. Take care of yourself

and finally hugs to doggylala

LOL, you mean you are not bored of my pics yet?

Talking of which I popped out with some crunched up frosties for the robins this afternoon. It was cold in the stiff breeze and felt crap so didn't hang about long but did snatch a couple of decent pics.

Wanna see em?
