FAQ
If you work for more than 6 hours a day, you're entitled to an uninterrupted rest break of at least 20 minutes - for example a tea or lunch break. You must be allowed to take it during the day rather than at the beginning or end.
You shouldn't have to work more than an average of 8 hours in each 24-hour period, averaged out over 17 weeks. You can work more than 8 hours a day as long as the average over 17 weeks is no more than 8. Your employer can't ask you to opt out of this limit.
If you work for more than 4 hours and 30 minutes in a day, you're entitled to a rest break of at least 30 minutes - for example a tea or lunch break. This should be one continuous break if possible. You must be allowed to take it during the day rather than at the beginning or end.
Generally, no, there are no federal laws that limit how many hours you can work in a single day. (Though some state labor laws have maximum hour laws for minors.) The federal law that applies to all employees is the Fair Labor Standards Act, or FLSA. This law does not regulate how many hours you can work in a day.
No. If you would need to refuse a break, either the break is a legal requirement or part of company policy (so refusal would be a fireable offense). In many situations, such refusal creates liability issues for the employer.
A 12-hour shift is legal. However, the regulations generally require that there should be a break of 11 consecutive hours between each 12-hour shift.
Yes, your employer is required to make you take your break, if you are legally entitled to one. Regardless, your company probably has a policy beyond the law which mandates you must take them.
Indiana's labor laws do not mandate employers provide meal or rest breaks to their employees. However, if employers choose to provide breaks, their employees are entitled to have at least three breaks during an eight-hour shift.
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.
15 minute break for 4-6 consecutive hours or a 30 minute break for more than 6 consecutive hours. If an employee works 8 or more consecutive hours, the employer must provide a 30-minute break and an additional 15 minute break for every additional 4 consecutive hours worked.
