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 Illinois, a shift lasting 7.5 hours or more entitles employees to a meal break of 20 minutes. The meal break must be taken not more than five hours after the employee has initiated work. If an employee works for more than 10 hours, they are entitled to two meal breaks, with a minimum of 20 minutes each.

Senate Bill 3146 changes this. It establishes that non-exempt employees in Illinois must have at least one day of rest in each successive seven-day time period, no matter where those days are on a calendar week.
