Employee Handbook
8.6 Statutory Workplace Entitlements
It is important that you understand your rights as well as how we manage our
business on a daily basis.
Rest breaks
You are entitled to a 30-minute break (unpaid) for each 8-hour shift. You
must clock in and out for this break.
You are entitled to a 15 minutes break in a 4-hour shift (unpaid).
The 15 minutes may form part of the 30-minute break.
All breaks are unpaid and are a statutory requirement and must therefore be
taken.
Breaks maybe slightly different if you work in offices, please see your Line
Manager for details.
An employee restaurant / break area is provided in all properties for you to
use. You are not permitted to eat or drink in public areas, whether it is
your own food or food that had been provided for you by the property.
Please ensure that you are mindful of others and that you clean up after
yourself when using these areas.
Food is provided, based on one meal per shift. Food should not be eaten out
of the designated staff areas. If you are found eating or drinking in a non-
designated area you may be subject to disciplinary action.
Please ensure you clock out at the start of your break and clock back in when
you resume your shift.
8.7 Working hours
Your Line Manager is responsible for producing the roster for your department
and for providing at least one week’s notice of your shifts. If you have any
special requests for days off, please ensure that you provide as much notice
as possible so that we can help to support this. We cannot guarantee the
same days off each week, but we will always do our best to meet any requests
for change where advance notice is provided.
