FAQ

Generally speaking, yes an employer may require that their employees take breaks, even if they are not required to provide them under the law; there is nothing in the law that would prevent them from doing so.

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.

Many employers voluntarily offer meal breaks in recognition that it is important for their employee's health and productivity to be given time to eat. There is, however, no legal requirement to provide a workday meal break in Florida, except for employees age 17 or younger.

Denying Meal or Rest Breaks in Florida As per the details above, in most cases, it is unlikely that employees can sue their employer specifically for failing to provide meal or rest breaks in Florida.

No. The only break mandated by law is an unpaid lunch break of at least 30 minutes, and it must be provided after five hours on the job.

Yes, employers in Florida can change an employee's schedule without advance notice, as there are no state laws requiring such notice. However, employers should consider the potential impact of sudden schedule changes on employee morale and work-life balance and strive to communicate changes as early as possible.

In Ontario—the Canadian province with the highest number of full-time workers—the Employment Standards Act (ESA) mandates that most employees must be granted a 30-minute break, or eating period, for every five consecutive hours of work. During a 10-hour shift, employees can take a second 30-minute break.

Minors who work for more than 4 hours continuously must be given a meal period of at least 30 minutes. These limits do not apply to minors employed by their parents. There are prohibited and restricted occupations for minors. Must also follow federal restrictions/prohibited occupations for agricultural work.
