How many hours in 4 months working 8 a day?
693 hours, 20 minutes... Assuming you work five days per week.
Can a manager be forced to work more than 40 hours per week?
The Short answer? yes. If you are a salary employee it's because you manage two or more people. Most salary contracts are on a weekly basis (Five, Six, sometimes Seven day weeks). The only way salary employees can get overtime is if they work over the agreed upon "work week". So if you're on a Five day week contract and you work Saturday you would get a prorated sixth day of pay added to your check. This is the downside to being salary. The upside is that you are usually at a higher pay scale. Lower management and people making somewhere around $1,000/week usually do not benefit from a salary if they work more than 40 hours a week. Their hourly wage essentially goes down to near-minimum wage levels if they work long hours every day.
