The law allows the employer and employees (or union if there is one) to agree in writing to up to 60 hours per week. The reality of the situation is that many people work up to about 70 hours a week without the government caring much (as long as there is no complaint lodged and then they will show up). Working 92 hours in a labour position is ludicrous and unsafe for everybody involved.
My standard work week is a minimum of 58 hours and can frequently hit 70 or more and I can't say shit about it.

Oh and as far as IT jobs go in Ontario you can throw all those rules I said before right out the window. Your employer owns your ass. Note the OT pay.

I suppose running all the jobs in the province doesn't qualify as a supervisor position then.

And yeah, I'd say you got riled up. You spent time digging up references in order to prove a point, which apparently didn't need to be proven, because "daydreams"

Edit: as far as safety goes, I suppose that one incident in 3.5 years is extremely unsafe, and beyond ludicrous. I'll make sure to tell my employer that we really need to cut down on the hours worked in the name of safety.

I have links to all that so didn't take more than 5 minutes.

How is pointing out the law getting riled up or trying to prove a point anyway? I said you worked more than the legal number of hours and you got bent out of shape for some weird unknown reason.

Supervisor of the whole province eh? Well then racking up overtime shouldn't be noteworthy to you. Also limits your whining ability next time you are in the field. What are you going to do with all that banked OT when you are off 4 months of the year anyway?

What are you still doing here anyway? You should have been over fighting Isis for millions of dollar weeks ago.

Yup, supervisor for the province, recently promoted, or at least given a far larger scope of work. I work in the field for 10-13 hours a day, then do paperwork and check up on other crews for a few more hours now.

I need the banked OT so that I can take the time off, my employer isn't gracious enough to pay me the entire winter with me sitting around not coming to the office.

Still here, since my contact said that his work was done in Mosul and he's still waiting for something else to flare up. Good times.

I'm glad that you have such a vested interest in my life.

I feel the same way about rolled tacos and palacsinta.
