... generally responding to that question with an unspecific reply of "all the time" isn't uncommon in daily English and would mean that the person has many breaks or more breaks than "often", "regularly", "sometimes" and so forth....

In that case, your question needs to be something like "Do you take breaks often at work?" This translates to "做嘢時多唔多休息?" Possible answers include "often" (多), "regularly" (都幾多), and "sometimes" (唔多).

Awesome! Thanks a million:)
