Sorry for the confussion. No one else is foreced to take an unpaid hour break here. State law mandates 2 paid 10 minute rest periods and one 30 minute break in the middle of the day.Your not listenning State laws says it is manatory that breaks and meals be taken!
While other employees are free to take breaks for up to an hour (or not despite state law), no one is foreced to take an unpaid hour break.
Thus, even if I comply with state law, my employer may force my coworker I to take a longer unpaid break. I wasn't sure if an emplyer could do this since no one else is required to take such a break. I am assuming that emplyers must have policies that apply to everyone and should not be able to make exceptions for two people.
