<p>In Great Britain, working hours are governed by the Working Time Regulations, which
set the maximum working hours and minimum rest breaks workers are entitled to. All
workers are entitled to a minimum of 20 minutes’ rest break if they work at least
six hours, which may be paid or unpaid depending on the employment contract. Some
workers such as shift workers may be entitled to ‘compensatory rest’ if they don’t
have the right to specific rest breaks.</p><p> </p><p>Payment for rest breaks is a
matter for individual contracts.</p>
