FAQ
What is the law in California? Under California's meal and rest break law, non-exempt employees are entitled to a 10-minute rest break in a 5-hour shift, but not a meal break.
The ESC outlines specific break requirements for provincially regulated employees based on their shift length: 4-hour shift: No break required, but employers must allow bathroom use. 5-hour shift: One 30-minute break (can be split into two 15-minute breaks if agreed upon by the employer and employee).
Employees who do not work the same days every week Regular days are determined by looking at whether an employee worked at least 5 times on that day in the previous 9 weeks. This rule is sometimes called 'The 5 of 9 rule'.
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.
However, when employers do offer short breaks (usually lasting about 5 to 20 minutes), federal law considers the breaks as compensable work hours that would be included in the sum of hours worked during the workweek and considered in determining if overtime was worked.

In Alberta, the obligation to provide common law severance arises when an employer terminates an employee without cause, and the employee's entitlement to notice is not fixed by their contract or limited to the statutory minimums set by the Employment Standards Code.
However, a common guideline is as follows: Short Breaks: Employees typically receive a 10-15 minute break for every 4 hours worked. For a 6-hour shift, it is reasonable to have one short break. Lunch Break: If the shift exceeds 5 hours, many companies provide a longer meal break, usually around 30 minutes to an hour.
