Brief summary: The regular limit is 8 h per day, but can be extended to 10 h per day as long as the daily average doesn't exceed 8 h/day as measured across a six-month period (the averaging period can be extended to up to a year by agreement). The thing to note is that the average is based on the official working week, which to this day still runs six days, Monday to Saturday. So as long as you're working less than 48 h/week, it's actually impossible to exceed the 8 h/average day limit and 3x10 h is perfectly fine from that point of view. Extra pay and/or extra days off are only mandated for night-time work, anything else is a matter for wage agreements or your individual contract.
