Australian rules are similar. I believe we are required to take a break of at least half an hour after every five hours of work. 1 hour is the standard lunch entitlement

We also have an unwritten right to two 15 minute paid breaks for morning and afternoon tea which will slowly disappear as fewer and fewer people use it
