Yes mandatory overtime is legal. The only way hours are mandated are for people under the age of 16.

There are no laws limiting the number of hours an employer can require a person to work who is over the age of 16.


Can they make you work more than 40 hours a week if your not available?

It depends. Normally, overtime is brought up in work contracts, if you signed one. If not, then you can challenge mandatory overtime (which your employer may challenge, because overtime is USUALLY at a higher rate than normal worktim). If overtime was not discussed in your contract, you can challenge your employer. Hope this helps, -Ubermensch00
