Take Back the Lunch BreakAccording to results of a study commissioned by Tork, an Essity brand, nearly 90 percent of employees consider the ability to take a lunch break critical when accepting a new job. However, once they are on the job, the average lunch break is less than 30 minutes for more than half of North American workers – barely enough time to purchase a meal, let alone enjoy it or be frequent restaurant visitors. 

To help workers and restaurants, Tork introduced the third Friday of June as annual National Take Back the Lunch Break Day in an effort to encourage workers to take the pledge to step away from their desks and return energized.
