Lunch/Break Periods. All full-time employees must take an unpaid lunch break of one hour. It is expressly understood that in order to assure necessary staffing, employees may be required to stagger their lunch hour. Employees must, however, notify the immediate supervisor prior to taking lunch, and all lunch hours shall begin no later than 2:00 p.m. unless specific work units dictate a different schedule. If voluntary staggering, in the University's judgment, does not result in necessary staffing, the University shall designate the times employees are to observe their lunch hour. If, for some reason, a full-time employee is expressly required by his/her supervisor to work through his/her lunch period, he/she shall have the additional time worked counted as paid time worked.
Lunch/Break Periods. It is the intention of Management to provide appropriate relief to all employees as provided in the Master Agreement and will not alter the lunch period or relief schedule unless it is a true emergency. A 15 minute breakdown will not be considered an emergency under normal operation conditions. The company will only move one break/lunch per shift or crew after a 15 minute loss of production in the affected department (Stamping, Body, Paint, Trim and Chassis). The parties reaffirm the provisions of Article X, Section 6 of the Master Agreement concerning the advancing or delaying of an employees’ lunch period.
Lunch/Break Periods. The Company predetermined lines through lunch and breaks. This decision is based on daily production output vs. production target or customer requirements and lost production from previous day. When the Company does decide to run these lines it will be in a fair and consistent basis across all three shifts. The Company will provide the plant committee with a detailed explanation as to why the need to run through breaks is required and will be consistent in following the letter on a day to day basis. The Company also agrees to provide, when requested by the Plant Chairperson, documentation showing that the process continues to be fair for all three shifts. Both parties will meet as required to determine the need to run through breaks and ensure that a fair and consistent schedule is implemented.
Lunch/Break Periods. • The working day shall be broken at the approximate midpoint by an unpaid meal period of thirty (30) minutes. Normally, there shall be two (2) paid rest periods of fifteen (15) minutes each during each regular shift. Employees shall not be restricted to a specific area during break periods.
