Are hour-long lunch breaks becoming a thing of the past? After being away from the workforce for a decade for various reasons, I’ve heard that the standard lunch break has shrunk to just 30 minutes. I’m really interested to know if this is the case for you and which industry you’re in.

One thought on “Are one hour lunch breaks no longer a thing?”

  1. It seems like the length of lunch breaks can vary quite a bit depending on the industry and company culture. While some places still offer an hour for lunch, others have shifted to shorter breaks, like 30 minutes. In fast-paced environments like retail or hospitality, shorter breaks are more common due to the nature of the work. However, in fields like tech or corporate settings, you might still find a lot of companies that value longer breaks for their employees’ well-being and productivity. It’s definitely worth asking about company policies during interviews to get a better idea of what to expect! How do you feel about shorter lunch breaks?
