Reply to comment by jailguard81 in Is there a way to talk to a direct NJ labor agent about illegal work conditions? by [deleted]

Actually, unless your under 18… or 16, I can’t remember, they aren’t required to give you any breaks. It sucks but it’s true.

Under NJ labor law? I don’t think so. They have to give u 30min lunch break

No they're right. After 18 no requirement for breaks.

Yea, I just double checked. Over the age of 18, nj doesn’t mandate breaks. It’s crappy, but legal.

Wow I never knew that. I would never work for anyone who wouldn’t give breaks. No matter how much they pay

That only applies to minors. New Jersey does not mandate breaks for adults.
