In my company you are not allowed to work longer than 10h unless your boss gets a special permit for emergencies. And if you work more than 12h, you are not allowed to drive home but the company will pay a taxi. And another taxi the next morning.
Tim, I'm on the side of not overworking employees, but I've made tons of extra income from overtime (US pays double or +50% for overtime). And this one guy at my first real job made so much with overtime in 1 year that he was able to buy a ski lodge in Tahoe and retired there at ~45 yrs old. Overtime should be voluntary, though.
