Breaks in Ohio

Lori B

Hi

Does Ohio mandate any sort of breaks for ees during the day? I'm well aware of the federal side of things and other states, just not Ohio. I've searched the forum and see that just about every state but Ohio has been addressed here. Can any of our Ohio readers help me? Thx

Lori

I've been working in Ohio for 12 years.

Ohio does not mandate breaks for employees 18 years of age or older. You are required to give minors a paid break (sorry I can't remember if it's 15 or 20 minutes) if they work over 5 hours.
