generally yes. depends on laws of states or country where you live. in u.s., most places have to pay you premium rate for OT etc, and have limits on number of consecutive days you can work,

Sure - you can be asked to do anything. Asked implies you have the right to say no.
Many variables apply though - do you have a union? Do you have an employment contract? Are you being paid overtime or otherwise compensated for the extra time worked? Are you being coerced, or is there a negative response if you refuse?
You don't really provide enough details for a meaningful answer

I believe it is. I work a seven day swing shift. I work seven days then I am off for a couple of days. Some people do not like this at my job.

Yes... but they cannot sack you if you refuse to work on religious days (like Sunday).
