FAQ

New Jersey Law While employers typically provide lunch and meal breaks in New Jersey, there is no legal requirement for most employers to provide any breaks. Your right to take time off might be set by a formal policy in the company's employee handbook, an informal policy or even an unwritten practice.

How many breaks in an 8-hour shift in New Jersey? Minor employees would receive one 30-minute break during an 8-hour shift. No break requirement is in effect for employees ages 18 and over.

No. If you would need to refuse a break, either the break is a legal requirement or part of company policy (so refusal would be a fireable offense). In many situations, such refusal creates liability issues for the employer.

Does my employer have to give me two 15-minute breaks per day? MGL c. 149, § 100 requires a 30 minute lunch period during shifts longer than six hours, but does not require breaks.

Yes, you can bring a legal claim associated with the employer not providing you with a reasonable opportunity to take your meal or rest periods.

Politely express your concerns and remind them of the break policy. It's possible they may not be aware of the issue. Speak to HR: If the situation doesn't improve after talking to your supervisor, consider reaching out to your Human Resources department. Present your documented evidence and explain the situation.

Michigan does not have a state law that mandates meal breaks for employees age 18 and older. This means that employers are not legally required to provide a meal break. However, while Michigan law does not mandate breaks for adult employees, regular breaks are beneficial for both employees and employers.
