FAQ
ODRISA requires employers to provide employees with at least 24 hours of rest in every “consecutive seven-day period.” It also requires meal periods of at least 20 minutes every 7.5 hours worked (and an additional 20-minute meal period for employees who work shifts of 12 hours or longer).
Meal breaks lasting 30 minutes or longer can be unpaid, so long as employees don't work during that time. Employers are not required to give rest breaks. Employees who work between 6 and 8 hours are entitled to a 20-minute meal break. Employees who work for 8 or more hours are entitled to a 30-minute break.
Rest Breaks California law entitles you to a rest break for every 4 hours of work. You are also entitled to a rest break for every substantial fraction of a 4-hour work period. The rest break has to be at least 10 minutes long. To the extent practicable, your rest break has to be in the middle of each work period.
The Illinois law that applies is called the “One Day Rest in Seven Act” (or, “ODRISA”). In addition to requiring one day off for every consecutive seven-day period, the Act also requires a minimum 20-minute meal break if you work at least 7.5 hours a day (which has to be given within the first 5 hours of the shift).
"Seven Day Permit" - a temporary registration permit as provided in IVC Section 3-403 issued to an Illinois resident for operation of a non-registered vehicle within the State of Illinois for up to 7 days.
In Illinois an employer cannot work you more than 6 days straight without your consent or getting a waiver from the state to do so in some kind of emergency.
(a) Every employer shall allow every employee except those specified in this Section at least twenty-four consecutive hours of rest in every consecutive seven-day period in addition to the regular period of rest allowed at the close of each working day.
Someone working a 6-hour day is entitled to a break no less than 20 minutes. This must be taken, the employer cannot say it can't be taken, nor can the employer make the person take it at the very beginning or end of a shift. The break must also be uninterrupted and away from where they work.
You can either sue or file a wage claim with the Illinois Department of Labor. Employers are required to provide at least a 20 minute break within the first five hours of work, so long as your shift is at least seven hours long.
