Know Your Rights: Breaks & Meal Periods

July 7, 2011

Our Union contract guarantees that all workers get at least a 30-minute meal period if working more than five hours in a day. Our contract language says that the hospital has an obligation to provide an employee with a 30-minute uninterrupted meal period or provide penalty pay.

If you have missed any of your breaks or meal period, please click here to open and print the form you need to fill out. Return the form to your steward or Union Representative Debbie Jackson. You may fax forms to (760) 200-2744.
