Unless you let yourself get fucked over, you’re not on call 24/7/365 and for the time you are on call, you should get some sort of compensation.

They want to pay you shitty for 8 hours and than let you work 12-14 plus being on call for the rest of the day.

Here in Italy “being on call” is a contract clause, it’s often a rotation roster between multiple similar employees, and requires extra compensation
