You can be forced to work mandatory overtime on your day off if you are a union worker and this is part of your contract. You should call you union steward or check your union manual.
Forced overtime is when an employer makes employees work over their scheduled 40 hours.
Yes. There is no federal regulation regarding forced overtime. Employees over the age of 16 who refuse to work forced overtime are subject to discipline up to and including being fired. Bills are being considered regarding overtime in the medical field. Employees with disabilities may get special consideration if mandatory overtime is difficult because of their disability, but in general, if your boss says you have to work overtime you don't have much choice.
This is usually covered by union rules. If you have no union then you will need to look into the state, county and city work codes.
If you have a union where you work, overtime is often limited for workers in school. If you are being forced to work overtime which is unfair, you should join a union.

Yes mandatory overtime is legal. The only way hours are mandated are for people under the age of 16. If you are over the age of 16 your employer can require you to work overtime in order to keep your employment. There are no laws limiting the number of hours an employer can require a person to work who is over the age of 16.
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.
It is refers to a situation where employers require employees to work beyond their regular hours, usually exceeding the standard 40-hour workweek. This extra time is not optional, meaning employees are forced to work these additional hours as part of their job duties. The specific rules governing mandatory overtime vary by country and industry, with labor laws often stipulating compensation, such as higher pay rates for overtime work. While mandatory overtime can help businesses meet urgent deadlines or increase demand, it can also lead to challenges like employee burnout, lower morale, and decreased productivity if not managed properly. Employers must balance the need for extra labor with the potential negative effects on worker well-being and motivation.
depends on your state. Some have mandatory overtime so you may have to work up to 12 hrs a day.
I suppose that depends on your cities policies, but to the best of my knowledge overtime is never mandatory regardless of whether you are a municipal or private employee.
Yes, a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) can be mandated to work longer than their scheduled shift in a nursing home, especially during emergencies or staffing shortages. However, this is subject to labor laws and the specific policies of the facility, which may require that overtime be compensated appropriately. It's important for CNAs to be aware of their rights and any agreements they may have regarding mandatory overtime.
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
