FAQ

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has neither researched nor issued standards requiring that workers be permitted lunch and rest breaks in the course of their workday.

In Florida, employers are not required by state law or federal law to provide their employees with any rest breaks through the workday or during the 8-hour shift. Additionally, meal breaks, for adult employees, are also not mandated ing to the law.

In Texas, there are no labor laws in breaks, so employees do not have a right to breaks and employers are not required to provide a certain number of breaks even during a 12-hour shift. However, it is common for workplaces to provide one meal break (30 mins.) and two rest breaks (15 mins. each) during a shift.

The simple answer is no your employer can not control how you spend your time off the clock. In short, without probing into the attendant circumstances, it would be difficult to give you any real analysis. As such, I suggest you seek a consultation with an employment attorney for more particularized advice.

The Industrial Welfare Commission requires a half-hour meal period after five hours of work, unless the workday will be completed in six hours or less and the employee and employer have an agreement to waive the meal period.

Unlike some states that have labor regulations mandating workday rest periods for employees, the government of Virginia does not have such regulations in place. Consequently, in Virginia, the decision to provide breaks or rest periods to employees is entirely at the discretion of the employer.
