FAQ
A: California's strict and enforceable labor laws require every employer to provide their employees with an unpaid 30-minute meal break time for every five hours worked. These breaks must be uninterrupted by work for the entire 30 minutes. Employees can spend this time in any way they choose, as it is their break time.
In California, you're allowed to waive your meal break if you do not plan on working more than 6 hours in a shift. If you do plan on working longer than 6 hours then you are required to take your meal break before your 5th hour of work even if you waived it beforehand.
California Rest Break Laws Non-exempt employees must be provided a 10-minute rest break for every four hours worked or a major fraction thereof. A major fraction is any work period exceeding two hours. For example: 3.5 to 6-hour shifts: One 10-minute rest break.
California Meal Break Law Requirements If you work over 5 hours in a day, you are entitled to a meal break of at least 30 minutes that must start before the end of the fifth hour of your shift. BUT, you can agree with your boss to waive this meal period provided you do not work more than 6 hours in the workday.
Employers must authorize and permit uninterrupted rest breaks for all nonexempt employees whose total daily work time is at least 3.5 hours. These mandatory rest breaks must be offered at 10 minutes for every four hours worked, or "major fraction" thereof.
