We work a 9am to 5pm day with half hour lunch break. I have been told by a few people that we should be getting a one hour lunch break as 30 mins is not enough for the hours we work. Can anyone confirm? thanks
what are your hours per week? I work 37.5 hours a week and have 30 mins lunch. If you work the same hours as me then the only way you would get an hour lunch break is to work from 08:30 till 5 rather than from 9.
Im the same but we all sit around a table and still have to answer the phone, see to clients etc, its NOT a proper break and theres not a lot you can do in half hour to escape
What if you work more than 37.5hrs p/w? I work Mon-Fri 9am-5pm (40 hrs contracted work).
Nobody in our office takes any kind of lunch "break", we have to eat our lunch whilst continuing with our work. Surely there has to be some kind of governing role which states how much break time is allowed by law?
