Is this legal?

I thought the daily rest was within a 24 hour period. So how does it count between shifts? For example i had 9hrs rest between mon/tue… wed/thurs… and thurs/fri ■■

A daily rest period has to be completed within the period of 24 hours from the start of the shift.

If you do a shift of more than 13 hours you cannot fit a regular daily rest period into the 24 hour period so it has to be a reduced daily rest period, even if you have 11 hours rest only the rest that fits into the 24 hour period counts.

Therefore a shift of more than 13 hours will result in a reduced daily rest period because a rest period of less than 11 hours in the 24 hour period is a reduced daily rest period.

The daily rest is all about how much rest you have between shifts, but remember that any rest that falls outside of the period of 24 hours does not count.
