If You Work An 8 Hour Shift ,Is It The Law That You Get A Break And/or Lunch?

FLSA, Federal Labor Standards Act doesn't require employers to provide breaks or lunch.  You should check your state's labor laws.  What kind of work do you do?  Not getting breaks or lunch for an eight-hour day is pretty harsh.

It also depends on whether or not you signed any kind of contract for this job . That stated you  do not take breaks during a 8 hour period. But as the other blurters have said the usual breaks are 2- 15 minute breaks and a 30 minute lunch break. If you think you are being mistreated then you need to report it. Since you do not say where(what state or country) this is taking place there is not much more i can suggest.

In most states.... A 15 minute break after first 3 hours. A half hour (lunch) break after 4 1/2 or 5 hours. Unions have their hours. You can check with your state gov. Under "wage & compensation laws"

If you live in the u.k, as i think you do by the picture, i' m 90%sure that you should get at least 30mins break every 4 half hours worked, i had this problem with my works some time ago, about 3years, I'm sure that was the outcome, don't quote me on that, i am quite sure....or something very very near that at least.

It's not right but I don't think against the law speak to your boss about that they cant have you working without a break and if your boss says no you quit because it's not worth

By law you need to get 1 hour break. I work for a law firm. And i get my full hour and so the rest of the people i know.

It's a 1/2 an hour lunch and i believe it's either 1 or 2 15 minute breaks.

Depends on your state; if you're in a state such as Idaho where the 'right to work' debacle was foisted on the voting public you have no rights whatsoever other than the right to not join a union. One day, and I hope it's real soon that the public will wake up to the fact our lawmakers work for money only and the general public certainly does not supply the money the business sector does.
