Employees in Minnesota can have at least three breaks in an 8-hour shift. Every employee in Minnesota should have a restroom break every 4 hours of work. If an employee works 8 hours or more, employers must provide a 30-minute meal break. In addition, breaks of less than 20 minutes must be counted as worked hours.
If you work for more than 6 hours a day, you're entitled to an uninterrupted rest break of at least 20 minutes - for example a tea or lunch break. You must be allowed to take it during the day rather than at the beginning or end.
