The relevant legislation is actually the Working Time Regulations 1998 which provide for only one 20 minute break in the working day, where that is for more than 6 hours (ie not 20 mins for every 6 hours worked). As long as they are giving her at least one 20 minute break they will be compliant. However, if they are proposing to change her contract, they can only do so with her agreement or by dismissing her and attempting to reengage her on a new contract (which leaves her the option of bringing an unfair dismissal potentially).
