FAQ
Rest breaks must also be spaced out so that they fall in the middle of each work period. This means if employees work 8 hour shifts, they should have one rest break before their meal break and the second rest break afterwards.
In most states, breaks are required by law. The employer has to, by law, enforce that employees take those breaks. If they fail to do so, it opens them up to very expensive lawsuits. I recall a decade or two back, The Gap has a massive settlement in the state of California over employees working through breaks.

Federal Break Laws: What Breaks are Required? The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), the primary federal law governing labor standards, does not require employers to provide meal or rest breaks. Short breaks, typically lasting about 5 to 20 minutes, are common in workplaces.
Trust me, this is a very common question and many like you are surprised that there is no federal law requiring that employees be given breaks in the United States. An employer has the right to make you work 12 hours without a break or even 16 hours.
There is no federal law or Arizona state law that says employers must provide breaks and lunches. There are mandatory break and lunch period laws in some other states, but not Arizona.
There is, however, no legal requirement to provide a workday meal break in Florida, except for employees age 17 or younger. Until an employee's 18th birthday, Florida labor law requires that minor employees be given a 30-minute uninterrupted meal break for every 4 hours of continuous work.
