[IASHRM] Days Worked in a Row

Tue Jul 18 16:58:11 EDT 2006

I contacted our Executive VP and this is the information that he was able to
find.  (Looks like no requirements that we were able to locate.  Other than
with Students.

In general, a person should be able to work as many hours and consecutive
days as they want, unless they are a student, (see an example for college
work study below) or their work falls under union or private contracts, or
State & Federal regulations.  For example, State & Federal regulations
govern commercial transportation: ground, rail and air.  Some hazardous
industries may have mandated work restrictions, and occupations that are
governmentally recognized safety sensitive position(s) will probably have
restrictions.

Subject: [IASHRM] Days Worked in a Row

Does anybody know of a recommendation or requirement for the maximum number
of days in a row an employer may allow employees to work?  I haven't found
any legal requirements related to this, but am wondering if I missed
something?  (DOL, OSHA, etc?) 

Do any of your companies have a formal policy regarding the number of work
days in a row allowed that you'd like to share? 

Thanks for any input you have!
Have a great day!
