Or if its like Bcr said above, an all hands on deck situation, everyone has to stay until the work is finished (in this scenario, i believe the max for mandatory OT for each person is 4 hrs)

My wife has the same thing where she works. She has high seniority so she is one of the first called but it's totally up to her if she wants to come in. They move down the line and if it got to the end and it wasn't filled it would be the lowest seniority people stuck with working it.
She usually chooses to pick up as much OT as possible because they pay double time and she'll bank it so 8 hours is like 2 days off in lieu of. Last spring she was working every Saturday and built up a shit load of day's off on top of her regular holidays.
