Encourage new and existing facilities to incorporate a proper canteen and a lunch break of at least 40 minutes. Since the early 1980s in many cases institutions and companies have cut back the lunch hour, as well as the facilities, some even closing the canteen. 'Lunch is for Wimps' became the prevailing attitude and now at best people eat a sandwich at their desk, or nothing at all. Well 'Lunch is for healthy, happy workers' more likely. We got to have a break from our work, time to eat a well-balance fresh cooked meal from the canteen. Time to chat with our colleagues, usually while having a walk outside. And time to go to the loo! We also had well-attended works football and netball teams. No coincidence that since this erosion of lunch time people have worked a long and stressful day, only to arrive home starving hungry with no time and energy to cook. So they resort to takeaways, binge on box sets & alcohol to block out their day, sleep badly, probably have an argument, then do it all again the next day. Obesity, bowel cancer and other physical and mental health issues have developed.
