    No, you can work 13/14 days, then you must be given a day off. Are you being paid hourly or salary, and do you have more than one day off after doing nine straight? I remember when I worked a 6 day week on a variable roster and my days off could have been at either end of each week.

    Covered by the working time act

    http://www.irishstatutebook.ie/eli/1997/act/20/section/13/enacted/en/html

    (I think effectively it means you can work 12 days! But then you get two days off)
