Q: Can you combine meal and rest breaks in California? A: Rest and meal breaks should not be combined. If you have worked for 12 hours, your boss cannot simply give you a 1-hour meal break and say that it qualifies for your entire meal break. Instead, you should be given two separate meal breaks.

Under California law (IWC Orders and Labor Code Section 512), employees must be provided with no less than a thirty-minute meal period when the work period is more than five hours (more than six hours for employees in the motion picture industry covered by IWC Order 12-2001).

In California, ing to labor laws, employees can waive their lunch break if their work shift is six hours or less. However, it's essential to note that this waiver must be mutually agreed upon by both the employer and the employee.
