      Yep, in my country, IT “professionals” are considered exempt, so even if you’re just a junior dev doing basic CRUD all day, you’re a “professional” and you aren’t owed OT pay. Thankfully, all of my companies have been reasonable about OT and it’s basically never been a requirement. I really appreciate that because WLB is super important, and I make sure to ask about on-call work and that sort of thing when interviewing for jobs.
