Nursa does not require 1099 independent contractors to take breaks or lunches during a shift.
However, facilities may have their own policies in place that may require you to take breaks and lunches. You are always encouraged to contact the facility directly before your shift or talk with the facility when you arrive to clarify any questions you may have about their policies. Facilities may also provide information on breaks and lunches in the shift instructions.
Mandatory Breaks
Anytime you view a shift, you can easily see whether it has a mandatory unpaid break in the shift detail view. Please ensure you take any mandated breaks as they have already been deducted from the shift estimated total.
