Whether an employer is required to provide rest and meal breaks is covered by state law rather than the federal wage and hour laws. As with many other state laws, rest and meal break requirements vary from state to state. This can cause headaches for employers who operate in more than one state.

Management 2000, a Professional Employer Organization, has the HR management tools to identify applicable state laws and develop appropriate human resource policies for its clients. This is just one of the many ways the HR professionals at Management 2000 provide HR support and resolve human resource issues.
