Broken Shifts Sample Clauses
The "Broken Shifts" clause defines the rules and conditions under which an employee's work shift may be split into two or more separate periods within a single day. Typically, this clause outlines the maximum number of breaks allowed, the minimum duration of each work period, and any additional compensation or allowances provided for working a broken shift. For example, it may specify that an employee cannot be required to work more than two separate periods in a day, or that a minimum rest period must be provided between shifts. The core function of this clause is to protect employees from excessive fragmentation of their workday, ensuring fair working conditions and appropriate compensation for the inconvenience of non-continuous shifts.
