Midday break for construction workers

Workers on construction sites and those doing manual labour in open areas will be allowed to rest for three hours during the hottest part of the day.
“The Ministry of Manpower announces a ban on work on construction sites or open areas... during 12:30pm until 3:30pm during June, July, and August to protect the health and safety of workers in these sites.” – Ministry of Manpower
An official said that due to the high heat during these hours, it becomes important to protect workers from harming themselves in these high temperatures.
This break is given to these workers by law, as per Article 16-3 of the Labour Law.
It states that workers cannot work in construction or open sites with high degrees of heat from 12:30 PM until 3:30 PM during June, July, and August of each year.
