How many hours rest an employee is entitled to may differ depending on the jurisdiction in which the work is done. Most places in the developed world establish a standard number of working hours per day and per week and require additional pay for those who work longer than that. Many areas limit the number of consecutive days worked without a day off, often to no more than 13. Usually specific requirements of minimum hours of rest are in place only for a few occupations. For example, over-the-road truck drivers in the US and Canada have a complex formula that tells them when they are not permitted to drive because they have not taken enough rest time. Similar but not identical requirements apply to airplane crews, and in some jurisdictions, to Physicians-in-Training working as Interns or Residents in hospitals.
