How do I know if I have a case against my employer for false information about mandatory employee break laws?

There are employment laws in my state that mandate breaks every six hours worked. I have been working 14 hours in a day with no break and was told that I was not allowed a break due to not being a minor. Do I have a case against this company for false information and exploitation?How do I know if I have a case against my employer for false information about mandatory employee break laws?
You could quit the job.


You can report them to the Wage %26amp; Hour or Labor Board.

There are industry exceptions allowed within each state. But your department of labor would be your best place to start to get information to see if you actually have a labor issue. There is a grey area for employees who are considered desk employees who have the ability to take a break while not fully relieved from duty- like a receptionist who puts the phone on Do Not Disturb, but is still required to be at the front desk during the break time.
