Legal Question in Employment Law in Indiana

Re: work hours

Unfortunately, neither federal nor Indiana state law require that an employer provide lunch or rest breaks. If an employer does provide a break less than 30 minutes in duration, that break must be paid. Breaks of 30 minutes or more may be unpaid.

The information provided by Haskin Lauter & LaRue (�HL&L�) is for general educational purposes only. No attorney-client relationship is established by this communication and no privilege attaches to such communication. HL&L is not taking and will not take any action on your behalf and will not be considered your attorney until both you and HL&L have signed a written retainer agreement. There are strict deadlines, called statutes of limitation, within which claims or lawsuits must be filed. Therefore, if you desire the services of an attorney and decide not to retain HL&L on terms acceptable to HL&L, you should immediately seek the services of another attorney.
