It is not universally enforceable across all industries. While many sectors, such as healthcare, manufacturing, and transportation, may impose mandatory overtime under specific conditions, others, like certain professional services or industries governed by union agreements, may have restrictions in place. Enforcement varies depending on country-specific labor laws, industry regulations, and contractual agreements.

In the U.S., for instance, the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) allows overtime but sets limits, particularly for safety-sensitive industries like aviation or trucking, where excessive hours may pose risks. Additionally, some states have stricter labor laws governing overtime.

Ultimately, the enforceability of mandatory overtime is contingent on legal frameworks, industry-specific rules, and individual employee contracts, so it's important to check the applicable labor regulations for each case.

Yes, if these exams were part of training, you must be paid for it. Your employer is required to pay you for all mandatory training and meetings. Optional meetings are different, but the do have to pay you if it's mandatory. If you're having trouble at work you should think about unionizing.
