Meal breaks at Whiddon
I work in a nursing home run by the Whiddon Group. What are my meal break rights?
Under Clause 25 of The Whiddon Group Agreement 2017, you are entitled to an unpaid meal break of between 30 and 60 minute length after each five hours of work. Note that by agreement, and prior to the rostering of a shift, you may take a longer meal break or work up to six hours without a break.
