Good day, we are permanent/regular doctors working in a government hospital. Our schedule permits us to work 7 24 hours and 1 8 hour per month on a fixed day schedule (eg. every friday and saturday if the month). Recently, we received a memo requiring us to work 24 hours a day on all our scheduled days (eg June has five Fridays and four Saturdays) If you compute the total number of hours work it will total 216 hours. .Is this still legal?

You asked for Total Number of Working Hours. The normal hours of work of any public health worker shall not exceed eight (8) hours a day or forty (40) hours a week. Under Republic Act No. 7305 or the Magna Carta of Public Health Workers, public health personnel shall be entitled to minimum benefits such as overtime pay, night shift differentials You may pursue this concern to the Magna Carta Council of the DOH as the DOLE has no mandate for workers in the public sector.
