Yes. You are actually only entitled to one so you are getting more than the minimum.

I mean entitled to one 20 minute break

[northboy]

is that all you get:-i work for a local council and a 12hr shift consists of 1x15 min break every 4 hours=i am sure that is the law now.
and a 1 hour dinner break..
change your job

I agree with ( northboy ) on an 8 hour shift you are entitled to as follows : 2 10 minute breaks as well as 1 hour meal break. and in an 12 hour work shift your are entitled to as follows : 2 15 minute breals as well as a 1 hour meal break......They are not treating you farely and can get into a lot of legal labor laws trouble for doing what they are doin ? Report them.....they can't fire you either......Good Luck to you......Michigan usa here
