Legal Question in Employment Law in Illinois

paid holidays

My question is does a employer have to pay holiday

pay for full time employes who work 50hrs a week?

Also does the same employer have to give a payed

lunch break while woking a 10hr day?

Or are there any laws that deal with this.

Thank You for your time.

find itself facing a lawsuit

or strike.
