can a employer tell you have to work 12hrs or else?
Ia am employed by a company for over a year now, and benn on a 8hr shift the whole time. They told me a day and half before that I was drafted to work 12hrs. I plead my case and in the end i was forced to quit my job. Is this right? Nothing in our handbook says anything about this.. it was just recently put in a plan... now with a familyof six what do i do?is this legal..

In the absence of a union contract governing how overtime is distributed or assigned, you were left only with the internal company policies. If there was nothing in the policies preventing this type of assignment then your resignation will be viewed as voluntary. The employer would be required to pay overtime, but there is nothing per se illegal about the assignment.
