An employer can require you to take breaks, but cannot deduct time for breaks and then prevent you from taking breaks. If time is being deducted for those breaks, you must be allowed to take the breaks. However, if you have decided not to take breaks because you want to be paid more money, then that is your own doing, it is not the employer's fault. You are being given breaks, so take your breaks. Requirements for breaks vary by jurisdiction (which is to say, the law doesn't work the same way in all locations) but it is quite usual that there is a labor regulation that requires employers to give breaks to employees, and if employees don't take those breaks, it will then appear that the employer is breaking the law. That's why the employer may insist that you take breaks.

If you work for a nonprofit agency and you are paid a salary is there a limited number or maximum number of hours over forty that your employer can make you work?

If you work 40 hours a week, your done! You dont have to work anymore hours if you dont want to. It is against the law for any employer to force their employees to work if they dont want to. Call the labor board if you feel your rights have been violated. As for hours, you can work all the hours you want as long as its approved with your employer.
