You should be taking a lunch anyway so it should have never been a concern.

They have... Quietly.
I got pulled aside after a PCM one morning because someone watching a report in corporate said I took a lunch after 8 hours. The next week after the reversal I confirmed with my sup that it changed and have had to take a late lunch several times since and not a peep out of anyone.

No one said anything about not taking a lunch. I can't help it if you can't work more than 8 hrs without a break.

Thanks for the info. Very hard to get answers up here bc almost everyone wants to be the smart ***. I took my lunch late Monday and no one has said anything either.
Not only are you violating the contract, by not taking your lunch. You may bein violation of state rules also! Take your lunch when you are supposed to! Give the guy on the bottom of the list a chance to work!

Per my contract it states meal periods are to be taken between the 4th and 6th hour on duty except: 1. In case of equipment breakdown and 2. Where no place to eat is accessible, the meal period is to be agreed upon. I have no where to eat on my rt. so I take my lunch when I'm suppose to.

There is no state law in WI requiring a company to provide you a lunch break. I had no problem the last 3 months taking my 1/2 hour mid day. No Work was taken off me so it didnt create another job. I'm now back to breaking it up if it suits the situation.

Oh I can go longer than 8 hours, but I choose not to. I also choose not to violate the contract.

Refer back to post #169.

I read it. But on a different aspect, it's also not healthy to wait so long between meals (aside from sleep).
