Employees in Oregon are entitled to take a paid ten-minute rest period for each four hours worked (or major fraction thereof). The break must be approximately in the middle of the work period, if practical.

Rest breaks/rest periods are also required under California labor regulations. The length of required rest periods must be at least ten (10) minutes for each four (4) hours, or substantial fraction thereof, that the employee will work in the day. These rest breaks must be counted as time worked and must be paid time.

The Bureau of Labor and Industries can fine the employer for failing to give lunch breaks. However, the employee cannot sue the employer to recover penalties for the missed lunch breaks.

No. Your employee may not legally waive his rights to receive required rest and meal periods. To be in compliance, you must require your employee to take all mandated breaks, and you may even need to discipline an employee who refuses to do so.

Q. Can I have additional rest breaks if I am a smoker? A. No, under California law rest period time is based on the total hours worked daily, and only one ten-minute rest period need be authorized for every four hours of work or major fraction thereof.
