Everyone is entitled to paid rest breaks but they can be confusing and difficult to calculate manually for contract work.
Overview
Employees are entitled to paid rest and unpaid meal breaks that:
- give them a reasonable chance during work periods to rest, refresh, and take care of personal matters; and
- are appropriate for the length of their working day with the employer.
Rest breaks benefit workplaces by helping employees work safely and productively.
Employers must pay for minimum rest breaks but don’t have to pay for minimum meal breaks.
