Rest periods are offered to all employees, however, non-exempt employees are required to take a rest period as follows: state law requires a rest period (paid by the employer) of not less than ten minutes for every segment of four hours or major portion thereof (two hours and one minute through four hours) worked in one work period. This time must be taken in addition to, and separately from, required meal periods. The rest period should be taken as nearly as possible to the middle of the work segment.
