EU legislation:

Working time: excluded sectors. The Commission has adopted a package of measures to protect those workers not currently covered by the Working Time Directive against adverse effects on their health and safety by working excessively long hours. The package covers more than 5m workers in road, rail and sea transport, as well as air and inland water-way transport, sea fishing, other work at sea and doctors in training.
