In the Netherlands, a shift can be 12 hours at most, and a workweek can be 60 hours at most.

- Maximum of 55 hours a week for 4 weeks.
- Union rules might set lower values. An employee may never work more than 60 hours in one single week.
- Over a period of 16 weeks, an employee may not work more than 48 hours in one week. (So, the more overwork weeks, the less work per week is allowed.)
- After one shift, an employee may not work for at least 11 hours.
- After working 5 days in one row, the employee may not work for at least 36 hours.
Exceeding these hours, where you do more work than is allowed by law, is called structural overwork.
