It’s also a good reminder to people that as you mentioned overtime isn’t voluntary unless you have that stated in your contract, so long as it doesn’t extend your workday beyond 12 hours your employer can demand that you stay. A lot of people are completely unaware of this and don’t realize that by refusing to stay they are giving their employer cause to discipline them for job abandonment.
