An employer usually sets the work week within the contract of hiring their employee. The most at which an employer can make you work is 48 hours a week and the employee has the right to work more if they so choose to.
In general without a collective bargaining agreement (union) an employer can require an employee to work any amount of hours at any time as long as the employee is over 18 years of age.
yes,but the employee will be entitled to penalty rates over his agreed salary.
Yes..Just took Elect Con. test and bussiness law says 168 hour are in a work week !
Absolutely, but they can't force you to work more than 40 hours per week without paying overtime.
Yes.
This depends on age and location.
40 hours per week, anything over this amount is considered overtime.
No limit on hours, just overtime on hours over 40 in one work week. If you do not have a contract with your employer limiting the hours, you can be forced to work the hours. This is one of the benefits of belonging to a union, your work hours have been negotiated with your employer, so they can not force you to work extra long hours.
56 The above is a stupid answer! The real answer depends on who you work for, your employment arrangement, and what state or country you work in.
Yes you could, your employer cannot make you work that many but you could choose to.
The amount of hours a periodontist works will vary depending on the employer and location. On average, the work about 40 to 50 hours per week.
Depends
If you work 40 hours a week, your done! You dont have to work anymore hours if you dont want to. It is against the law for any employer to force their employees to work if they dont want to. Call the labor board if you feel your rights have been violated. As for hours, you can work all the hours you want as long as its approved with your employer.
Definately not. No US law prohibits that.
Entirely possible. Usually a working enviroment that pays commission will let you work any hours you want, but will require you to be there a minimum amount of hours.
Yes, the employer can ask. But you can always refuse and take the consequences.
In the US, you cannot be considered PT with 40 or more hours of work a week. It is not at the discretion of the employer.
