As the law stipulate working hours:

Article (65)

The maximum normal working hours for adult workers is eight hours per day or forty-eight hours per week. Working hours may be increased to nine hours per day in commercial business, hotel business, canteens, guarding and other work that may be added by decision of the Minister of Labor.

It is also permissible to reduce the daily working hours for exhausting or harmful health work by a decision of the Minister of Labor and Social Affairs and the normal working hours are reduced by two hours during the month of Ramadan and the periods spent by the worker in the transition between his place of residence and the workplace are not counted within

Article (66)

Daily working hours are organized so that the worker does not work more than five consecutive hours without periods of rest, food and prayer that are not less than one hour in total, and these periods are not included in the calculation of working hours.

As for factories and laboratories where work is in successive regiments, day and night, or in work in which technical and economic reasons are imperative to continue the work without stopping, the Minister organizes, by a decision, how to give workers rest periods, food, and prayers.

Article (67)

If the working conditions call for the employee to work more than the normal working hours, the period of increase is considered an additional time for which the worker receives a wage equal to the wage corresponding to the normal working hours, plus an increase of not less than 25% of that wage.

Article (68)

If the working conditions require that the workers work an additional time between nine o'clock in the evening and four o'clock in the morning, the worker shall be entitled to the extra time determined for the normal working hours, plus an increase of not less than 50% of that wage.

Article (69)

The actual additional hours of work may not exceed two hours per day unless work is necessary to prevent a serious loss or a serious accident or to eliminate its effects or mitigate them.

Article (70)

Friday is the normal weekly day of rest for all workers except for day laborers. If conditions warrant that the worker be employed on this day, he must be compensated for another day of rest, or he must be paid the basic wage for normal working hours plus an increase of at least 50% of that wage.

Therefore, we recommend that you file the complaint in front of the labor office and explain the matter in detail. In the event of proof of the violation, then you can leave the work without forcing you to pay any compensation to the work party as a result of leaving the work and without prior notice to it while retaining all the labor rights. We advise underestimating a lawyer who handle and follow the complaint
