IN WORK REST BREAK Sample Clauses

IN WORK REST BREAK. Where the working day is longer than six hours, all staff are entitled to take a break of at lease 20 minutes. Rest breaks must be taken during the period of work and should not be taken either at the start or the end of a period of working time. Employees should also be able to take this rest break away from their work station. In exceptional circumstances, if it is agreed by the employee and their line manager that an employee is unable to take a rest break, the unused entitlement should be claimed as a period of equivalent compensatory rest. However, the Regulations do not require for rest breaks to be paid. There is recognition that, on occasions, an employee may not be able to take the rest break away from their workstation. Only in exceptional circumstances (and where the employee’s activities involve the need for continuity of service in relation to reception, treatment or care of patients) should an employee be required to work through their in work rest break. Compensatory rest must be available within a reasonable period, probably two weeks. Arrangements for employees to take their breaks will be agreed at department level. Existing department arrangements which already provide for breaks of more than 20 minutes will meet the requirements of this provision and no further action is necessary. In circumstances where work is repetitive, continuous or requiring exceptional concentration managers must ensure the provision of adequate rest breaks as an integral part of their duty to protect the health and safety of employees. In such circumstances the advice of the Occupational Health Service should be sought.
