This area covers the statutory entitlement to breaks during work and any daily meal breaks that workers must be offered under UK law. It explains how long a worker may rest or eat during a shift and when a break can be taken. It also covers what happens if those rights are not provided or are improperly withdrawn. Rights are primarily set out in the Working Time Regulations and related rules.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The right to a meal or rest break is time-bound and linked to shift length, with specific consequences if an employer refuses or limits breaks. A solicitor can explain how breaches affect the worker’s position, the potential remedies, and the enforceable steps under the Working Time Regulations and associated guidance, including how to pursue a claim in a suitable tribunal or court.

Rachael Scowcroft

Tagged solicitor Rachael Scowcroft

I have known Rachael for well over 15 years, and when I was recently made redundant, she was the first person I turned to for guidance. Facing a settlement agreement from my employer was stressful and unfamiliar territory, but Rachael stepped in with exactly the support I needed. She assisted me with the legal aspects of the settlement, ensuring I fully understood my rights and the implications of every detail. On several occasions, I needed to call her for clarification or reassurance, and each time she was consistently professional, courteous, and incredibly knowledgeable. Rachael’s calm approach and expertise made a difficult situation far easier to navigate. Her support was invaluable, and she handled everything with the highest level of professionalism. Overall, Rachael is a credit to her profession — someone you can trust, rely on, and feel genuinely supported by during challenging times.
