What about days off?
You have to be given at least 24 hours off in a row every work week or at least 48 hours off in a row every two weeks. This means you could be required to work 12 straight days without a day off.
If you're a domestic worker, you're entitled to 2 free periods each week:
1 period of 36 hours in a row
1 period of 12 hours in a row
If you're a retail worker, you're entitled to:
36 hour rest periods every seven (7) days

Here's the Quebec version.
REPOS HEBDOMADAIRE
Le salarié a droit chaque semaine à un repos d’au moins 32 heures consécutives. Dans le cas du travailleur agricole, son jour de repos peut être reporté à la semaine suivante s’il est d’accord.

Enjoy your weekly 32 hours off !
