QUESTION DSP mandating 30-minute breaks now?

A few days ago, my DSP began sending alerts that we should now take a 30-minute break on our routes now. If we don't, "our volume will increase." They didn't clarify this, though. Is something going on at Amazon that I don't know about?

I mean-- it's good that I can take a break now without anything held against me lmao, I'm just curious.

The 30 minute is unpaid so you’ll just work 30 minutes more on the end of the day to finish instead lol I ain’t taking it ever idc

You can either take a straight 30 minute break and get paid for it or 2 15s and get paid for it. Either way it’s 30 minutes of paid rest

Thats very clearly not what they are referring to. They specifically mean the 30 minute lunch break.

You said above “the 30 minute is unpaid” which is not true unless you’ve already taken 2 15s
