The Labour Act sets 8 normal hours a day and 48 a week. With overtime a worker may work up to 10 hours a day and 60 a week, averaging no more than 56 a week over a year, and every worker gets one full day off a week. Many buyer codes cap the week at 60 hours including overtime and require overtime to be voluntary.
