Section: Time Away From Work Lunch and Rest Periods
Lunch Periods
Employees are allowed an unpaid 30 min. lunch break unless specified differently by the contractor. Lunch breaks generally are taken between the hours of 11:00-1:00. The schedule for meal periods should be established on the basis of work requirements in each office. Staggered meal periods may be necessary in customer service locations. Supervisors should be sure that each location is adequately staffed and that someone with authority to resolve minor problems is available at all times.
Rest Periods
Two paid rest periods of 15 minutes each should be permitted each day. The schedule for these breaks should depend completely on the needs of each office.
Rest periods are considered time worked, and employees will receive compensation for such periods.
