Even if you have a waffle iron it seems that people donât make them very often and I think I know why. If you are a family of four, letâs say, thereâs a lot of down time while one poor waffle iron is trying to keep up with everyoneâs appetite.
Florida law requires that minors under age 18 must be given an uninterrupted meal or rest period of at least 30 minutes for each four hours they have continuously worked. Although Florida does not have a lunch and break law for those persons 18 and over, there are applicable federal rules for Florida citizens.
If employees work for consecutively for seven and half hours or more, a half an hour lunch break is require after the first and before the last two hours of work. Employers who provide a half an hour of paid rest within each seven and a half hours of work are exempt. These requirements do not impair the 7/1/90 collective bargaining agreement.
