Antiwork

I have a fairly physical job and the lunch break is only 30 minutes. How is this even legal?

Myself and a few other co workers asked for an hour lunch and were told “no”, since 30 is the policy nationwide. The refrigerators in the break room are always packed because almost no one leaves. 30 minutes start to finish is simply not enough time. I’m assuming nothing can be done? Lots of moving around and repetitive lifting. The additional 30 minutes of rest would far outweigh the whole “off 30 minutes earlier” in this case, as I know lots out there want 30 minutes since it’s less time How would you handle this if you felt like you needed an hour?
