Where I live, your employer cannot make you work than 9 hours a day or 40 hours a week without having to pay you overtime pay (at least 40 % more than ordinary hourly pay). If it happens regularly, the employer will get the Labour Inspection Authority on their ass.

Voluntary work is not allowed to exceed 13 hours a day, or an average of 48 hours a week within an eight week period.
