The Government has introduced a law change that will allow bosses to withhold workers' regular breaks, and instead pay for the time or trade the breaks for time off later.
National's bill allows bosses to replace regular breaks with "compensatory measures".
These include being able to start work late or leave early, or stockpile the missed breaks and trade them for a day off. The bill does not limit the forms of compensatory measures, so employers could pay staff rather than giving breaks.
