Asda break rules??

Soconfused14

Can anyone let me know what the break rules are at Asda. And are these paid or not? Ive been offered 25 hours but some of shifts are 7 or 8 hours so will breaks be taken off so will be less than 25 hours paid??

I don't know Asda specifically, but if they've said 25 hours, that will be your contracted paid hours.

How long are the breaks? 

If working over 6 hours in a shift you are entitled to a 20 minute break, there is no legal requirement for you to be paid for that break (though in my experience they always were). Obviously sometimes a shift will be 10-5 but actually you get a 1hr unpaid lunch break in the middle so it's actually 6 worked hours. 

Are the 25 hours fixed? Back in my call centre days if you didn't have a fixed shift pattern then the contracted hours per week was approximate and some weeks could be a bit less, sometimes a bit more and it just averaged to the contract.
