Under some US state laws and most European labor laws, yes. But they are subject to various restrictions as to when and for how long. The US federal wage and hour laws do not require lunch or coffee breaks. However, when employers do offer short breaks (usually lasting about 5 to 20 minutes), federal law considers the breaks as compensable work hours that would be included in the sum of hours worked during the work week. This is primarily considered in determining if overtime was worked. (Lunch breaks are not included in pay or in overtime calculation.)

Many companies have a standard practice of deducting a lunch break from total hours worked, especially if the break is unpaid. However, if your break is paid or if your contract specifies otherwise, you may not be docked. It's best to check your employment agreement or speak with HR for clarification.
