Deferment and Staggering of Meal or Rest Breaks Clause Samples
The 'Deferment and Staggering of Meal or Rest Breaks' clause allows an employer to postpone or schedule employee meal and rest breaks at different times rather than at uniform intervals for all staff. In practice, this means that breaks may be delayed or assigned in a staggered manner to ensure adequate workplace coverage or to accommodate operational needs, such as during busy periods or when specific tasks must be completed without interruption. This clause helps maintain workflow continuity and flexibility, ensuring that business operations are not disrupted while still providing employees with their entitled breaks.
