[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 173289, member: 198"] Our contract (southern region) says 10 min. and the break must be taken within a certain time frame. I can't remember the specifics but I know it keeps us from having to go on break as soon as we walk in the door and from waiting to we are about done with the shift. When I worked in the hub sometimes a belt would break somewhere so we'd have to go on break while it was being repaired. Even if it was during the first minute of the shift. That isn't supposed to happen anymore. As far as the PCMs goes....we would have ours at the beginning of the break or at the tail end. The time it took for the PCM didn't count towards the break. Management would designate an amount of time for each PCM. It would usually be like 2 minutes so our sup would try and wrap it up quickly so we'd get a little extra time for the break. But of course there were always a few people that didn't understand that and would bitch every time we had a PCM. [/QUOTE]
