So....less than six hours is nothing. I'm a teacher with 5 x 1 hour lessons per day so theoretically I'm entitled to no breaks at all.
strapping young lad:
well the missus works 4hr shifts part time in a motorway services and has been told she cant have breaks cos her shift isnt long enough.
hence the question
muddy4x4:
If it`s only a shift of 4 hours, then it`s no breaks. If the shifts is over 4 hours, then it`s 15 mins break.
Depends who you work for tho ? Some companys stick to the rule others don`t.
Hope that helps

When I worked at Bonar it was 30 minutes in an 8 hours shift, not tacked on to one end or the other. IIRC 4 hours wouldn't require a break at all (but they can't stop you going for a pee).
