What is the maximum number of hours an intern may work per calendar week?

• A. 48 hours
• B. 24 hours
• C. 40 hours
• D. 32 hours

Answer: (A)

This question tests the limit on weekly work hours for a pharmacy intern under Montana rules. The board sets a ceiling of 48 hours in a single calendar week, with the limit restarting each week. This cap is in place to ensure interns receive appropriate supervision and maintain patient safety while gaining practical experience. Hours up to 48 are allowed, but anything beyond that would exceed the regulatory limit. The other numbers describe lower schedules that are permissible but do not represent the maximum the board permits in a week.
