There is no general federal statute that requires such rest breaks or meal periods,

according to the US Department of Labor, rest periods (which may run from 5-20 minutes) are compensable and must be counted as hours worked. Bona fide meal breaks however, are not considered work time and therefore compensable as the employee must completely relieved from duty for the purposes of eating regular meals.
