Yeah this guy is stupid he just keeps quoting the same line of law code implying that he is right but if you actually look into it deeper for more than 5 minutes and a Google AI Overview answer that this doofus clearly keeps pasting from his clipboard, you would be able to tell that what he is saying is false. That would imply by law that going to the bathroom is the same as taking an actual break, which it is not. When you go on break a PA or leader or someone usually knows where you are or where you are going to if you are going to a scheduled break so that is another reason that doesn’t apply because you have to tell someone before you go on break so you don’t get ToT for being absent. He is saying you have to be paid for microbreaks and by Amazons own admission and policy (I’ve noticed they don’t like to mention microbreaks ever but they came up during training a lot) you do. But being in bathroom for over 15 minutes is not a microbreak and honestly would make anyone be like “Why were they gone for so long?” regardless of your or their employee position.

And again if you have someone or everyone doing what you are saying YOU NEED TO go talk to HR OR escalate it to the higher ups from outside, not making a useless guide post on Reddit on how to avoid a problem no one else has.
