email from the top, says because some people thought they were entitled to 2x 15 min breaks, and 60 min lunch, and various other reason, they saying now the 15 min breaks are canceled, and if you do break often, then you will have ot make it up. My boss says, as we in our dept only do a 30 lunch, then anymore will have to make it up. I read it all as the company is trying to scrape every last penny worths out of us. Work to rule is what i say, they want us to play by the rules, then i will follow the rules to the t.
B******s at work are cancelling our tea breaks

it's always short sighted to have strict edicts like this - last thing you want to do is p!ss off your workforce. There's generally a lot of goodwill there that may very quickly be lost and the employer will end up losing more time than just the 2 x 15 min breaks...
from what I remember it's 20 minutes for every 6 hours worked, this may vary dependant on your job though.
we get 2x10 min breaks & 30 mins unpaid for lunch, in a 8.5 hour shift
last job I worked gave us 1x10min & 1x20min breaks in an 8hr shift
