No, that is illegal.
What do you think they`re doing on the runners who put down a lunch even when it`s clear they are still working.

Up in our area, ENE, we are required to take an hour lunch. I personally would love to take 1/2 hr. and maybe get home a little earlier. I know...enter laugh track here...but it would be nice to have a choice.
Ours state a lunch of 1 hour. Now some take 50 minutes + 10 minutes break to reach that hour. Others take 1 hour of lunch + 10 minutes of break for a longer rest period.
Sounds like your center does not want to pay you for your two 15 minute breaks that you are entitled to under Ca state law.
In Ca. if you work over 6 hrs in a day you are entitled to 2 15 minute breaks and a 1/2 hr meal period. After 10 hours of work you are entitled to another 10 minute break. If you are going to work over 12 hours, you need to take a second 1/2 hour meal period between the 4 and 5th hour after your first meal period ended..
But since i'm a shop stweart and been with UPS for 27 years i don't let anything go by me if i think it's unfair! In the contract the parragraph that explains lunch period (i will not quote the contract look it up) there is nothing that states that we have to take an hour for lunch.
The minute you are not on the clock while delivering, you are taking lunch.It DOESN'T say we have to TAKE them, only that they be provided.
okay, this is where it goes downhill.
please feel free to borrow from my bag of insults:
I have : smuck, chowderhead, dummy, idiot, nincompoop, imbecile, etc, etc, etc.
I thought it was "schmuck"?
Glad you finally found the spell check and spelled knucklehead correctly.UPS will not take out an hour lunch if you don't but code 5. Those days are long but over. Knucklehead!!
What it says is that it will not be less than 1/2 hour, but no more than 1 hour long.LUNCH PERIOD:
The lunch period shall not be less than 1/2 hour or more than 1 hour in duration. The lunch period shall commence not less than 4 hours after the employees starts work, and shall be completed no later than 6 hours after the commencement of the employee's work. If the employee is directed to take a 1/2 hour lunch, the remaining 1/2 hour will be paid at the over-time rate.
I would hope that everyone here talking is on a diad of some sort 3,4 whatever. that is your time clock if you enter 30 mins for a lunch and you started at 830 overtime for you starts at 500. Tha's easy mathmatics? If you don't get over time after 500 someone is adjusting your board (time card) witch is against the LAW. Again ill say our board shuts down for 30 mins that should be all the required time needed for compliyance.
So now you are a lawyer?If you don't get over time after 500 someone is adjusting your board (time card) witch is against the LAW.
