    Default Limit on Hours

    Massachusetts:

    How many hours can a person work within a 24hour period? What are the laws governing this? Massachusetts website for labor law is vague...

    Default Re: Limit on Hours

    That's because there are no laws in MA or any other state, addressing how many hours an employee can work in a 24 hour period. There are only two states that limit the number of hours that can be worked in a week, or a pay period, and MA is neither of them. So the answer to your question is, 24.

    There are some industry specific exceptions, but since you did not give us any information about your job, we can't say if you fall into them.

    Not my job, just a random question.
