Yeah, a 10 minute break. Well that's at my work, I'm not sure if it's different. I'm pretty sure legally they are obliged to give him a break.

Your answer will depend on the state you live in. In most states the rule is one 10 minute break if the shift is in excess of four hours. And if the shift is in excess of 6 hours an un paid meal break. In the state of California, the meal break is after 5 hours. You can access this information on your state's website, under labor laws.

in Canada, no - 5 hours is the MINIMUM work shift before a break is required. So if they schedule him for 5 hours, then he must work the whole 5 hours.
If he gets scheduled for 6 hours - then he is allowed to have one 30 minute break.

definite, if the hours are consecutive. yet you do not must be paid for it. maximum individuals might want to really in basic terms flow abode a 1/2 hour early. once you turn 18, you get no damage. extremely backward compared to maximum states that require a meal damage and a couple of alternative breaks an afternoon. for sure, when you're in a union, they could replace the rules.

It depends on your state. Federal law doesn't require breaks, but many states do, and there are often special rules for minors. Check your state website, or call wherever he got his working papers.
