shift breaks in mississippi Mississippi

[t c carter]

i work for a co. in mississippi we work 8 1/2 to 12 hrs .
with i started i worked 12 hrs and we got 3 breaks 2 15mins and a 30min unpaid lunch
if you work 8 1/2 hrs you get 2 15mins breaks and a 30min break without pay
now i work 8 1/2+ nights we get 1 15mins break 1 30min without payed and if we work more then 10 hrs we can have a sec 15mins break
and i would like to know how they can do that ?

Because there are no federal or Mississippi laws requiring the company to do more than that.

Some states have requirements List of states with break rules

Yours does not. Sorry.

If you are getting any breaks at all, you are getting more than the law requires. Sorry.
