How long does an employee have to work before legally being allowed to get a break?
I work at a restaurant and can be on my feet nonstop for hours on end, like 4 or 5, and when I sit down for a second because my back or feet need a rest I get yelled at. I can work all day, eat on the go while standing and finish my shift of over 8 hours on the average and never be allowed to sit. Is this legal?

If you have an accident after working to long would that be a work related health and safety problem for work?
It depends. Were you at work when the accident occurred? And were you working to long because you were not allowed to take a break? If you were working to long and decided not to stop and take a break then it's you fault. If you were not at work on the clock when the accident happened than it's your fault.
Can you tell and employee theyre not allowed to eat at work when they don't take a lunch break?
If they are given a paid break then they may eat during it, usually 15 minute paid breaks for work longer than 3 hours are required, however for shifts lasting at least five hours and as long as 8 a standard break whether paid or unpaid can be forced upon the employee. You as the employer, however, may give special circumstance that they be allowed to eat while performing the job. In which case they do not have to take an unpaid break if they don't want to. This is to the best of my knowledge in my home state of New Hampshire.

Work 5 hours do you get a break?
Yes, 30mins.
I work 4 hours a day can i have a tea break?
Well 8 hours work a day entitles you to an hour lunch so I don't see why 4 hours couldn't give you half an hour break
