My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: Virginia
My BF works at a call center, and he works part time, thats 6 hours a day, 5 days a week. Normally, his breaks are around 3:30 and then 4:15 PM. He goes into work at 2:30 pm. And gets off work at 8:30. Is it fair, or legal to deny him a break after working over 4 hours?
He went to his supervisor and she refused to let him take a break when he had to use the restroom. Stating that because he works part time, he isn't allowed to have a bathroom break beyond the 2 poorly scheduled breaks. He's had this issue several times and has tried to get his supervisor, and others above his position to fix his schedule, to break up the breaks in a more consistent way, but they refuse, and tell him that they can not change the schedule on such short notice.
Though, not a month or so ago, he had 2 breaks in the same hour and went to the scheduling supervisor and they changed it immediately before he'd left the office. I am pretty sure he's being jerked around, what can he do to protect his rights and get fairly scheduled breaks in his work day?
