FAQ

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.

What is the Law Regarding Breaks and Meal Periods? Pennsylvania employers are required to provide break periods of at least 30 minutes for minors ages 14 through 17 who work five or more consecutive hours. Employers are not required to give breaks for employees 18 and over.

For an 8-hour work shift, employees are entitled to a minimum 20-minute uninterrupted break if they work more than six hours. The break should not be taken at the beginning or end of the shift, and employees must be allowed to take it away from their workstation.

The FLSA doesn't mandate the provision of meal or rest breaks. States that defer to federal law do not require employers to provide breaks during any length of shift.

How many breaks do employers get in an 8-hour shift in Pennsylvania? In Pennsylvania, there is no legislation mandating employers to provide rest or meal breaks to their staff. Nonetheless, if the employer decides to offer breaks, rest breaks should be shorter than 20 minutes and compensated.
