How many breaks do you get during a 10-hour shift? I work 10 hours each day and only get two breaks: a 15-minute smoko and a 30-minute lunch. That totals just 45 minutes of break time in a whole 10-hour shift, which I think is pretty inadequate.
I understand that professions like doctors, nurses, healthcare or disability workers, and those in aged care don’t get many breaks, but I’m speaking more generally about workers. Personally, I work in a warehouse setting.

It might be worth discussing this with your supervisor or HR to see if there’s any possibility of adjusting break times. Taking care of your well-being is really important, especially in physically demanding jobs like warehouse work!
