Reasonable Additional Hours. The NES does not use the word ‘overtime’. Under the NES, employees may be asked to work reasonable additional hours. The employment contract can only express hours of work in excess of the maximum 38 hours per week as reasonable additional hours. What is reasonable for additional hours is decided by weighing up a variety of factors including risks to occupational health and safety; operational requirements of the business; personal circumstances and family commitments; whether the employee has had notice of the likelihood of the need for additional hours; and whether the employee has previously indicated a willingness or capacity to work additional hours.
