Employers that are not government employers do not HAVE to give breaks at all, but most employers allow 2 10-15 minute breaks on an 8 hour shift.

"Federal law does not require lunch or coffee breaks. However, when employers do offer short breaks (usually lasting about 5 to 20 minutes), federal law considers the breaks work-time that must be paid. Unauthorized extensions of authorized work breaks need not be counted as hours worked when the employer has expressly and unambiguously communicated to the employee that the authorized break may only last for a specific length of time, that any extension of the break is contrary to the employer's rules, and any extension of the break will be punished.
Bona fide meal periods (typically lasting at least 30 minutes), serve a different purpose than coffee or snack breaks and, thus, are not work time and are not compensable."
Basically you are talking about one half hour for lunch if at least six hours are worked. Usually two fifteen minute breaks and a half hour lunch in an eight hour day. Since the breaks are not mandatory and granted by your employer, if the need arises you can be required to work through your normal break time.

Nostranomous is the only one that is close to being correct. Federal law does NOT guarantee anyone a break time. However, most employers realize that it is only good business to give a person a break time.
The exceptions are:
When your company guarantees a break time (based on employee handbook)
When you're covered under child labor laws
When your employment contract stipulates break time.
Otherwise, an employer here in the U.S. is not legally obligated to give an employee any break or lunch periods.

It depends on the company.
Some states have laws requiring certain breaks, but many don't.
