    It is unlikely that there are any employment laws in the UK which require tea-breaks when you are working in a fixed environment such as an office or a factory. You need to consult a qualified law-person face to face, or consult your trade union if you belong to one.

    There are laws about "breaks" for drivers of HGVs etc.

    You must be either from UK or Australia and as such your government probably has labor laws to protect those who are not part of a labor union.

    I suggest you investigate the laws concerning breaks there.They should be posted somewhere on line too.

    this is what I found on line.

    Keep in mind that an employer can offer longer breaks and more breaks than that, he just can't insist on shorter breaks than are required by law.
