I have been asking around this question for sometime now and no one has ever given me a straight answer.
Most of us that work for a big Chain like W or CVS are required to have at least 15 minutes break to have lunch during the 2 or 1 hour overlap. But....what about on days that we work 9 hours shift 9 to 6 or 12 hours shift 9 to 9??? Those days we don have overlap and we need to eat in between patients, verifications, consultations etc..
Those days we can't take a break, not even 30 minutes absolute break. While the techs are always getting 30 minutes out of the clock break, we the pharmacists don't get any. Is that legal?? Aren't they violating Labor Rights?
Please let me know
