Legal Question in Employment Law in Minnesota
forced ovetime
I am an immigrant under contract for 2 & 1/2 yrs in a company.My superior scheduled me to work for 9 nights in a row even if i stated that this is physically taxing for me.There was one time when I worked for 16 hrs & then had to come back after 8 hrs to work for 8 hrs more.there were also several times when I had to work for 7 nights in a row.I do not wish to continue working in this company because I feel that my health will suffer eventually,is there any way I can get out of mycontract?
