Far as I know you cannot opt-out of the 10 hour night working limit on an individual basis - the opt-out is a collective agreement which covers all workers in a given workplace.Spot on, It doesn’t need to be every worker in a given workplace it just has to be a group of people, a group being everyone doing the same job, but your right that individuals doing the same job as the rest of the group cannot opt out by themselves.
The opt out only lasts for 5 years, and must be retaken at regular intervals to maintain its legality, usually the majority opt out of the night working regulations, however any employee can opt to work under the night wtd at any time, they must give his / her employer 7 days notice in writing.
