That's a quick way to get fired. As of 2012, there was no right to refuse overtime in Nova Scotia and no cap on the amount of overtime you can work. I'm not aware of any amendments to the labour standards since then

Did it in 1214 and wasn't fired, would run a ver public labour board lawsuit if i was too.

Companies hate the publicity.

That's different from having the right to refuse overtime though.
