Legal break requirements?

My husband works for a very popular road service and semi tech company here in KY. Recently he was “promoted ” to roadside calls as well as shop duty. He will work 830am to 5pm in the shop and then “be on call” from 5 to 830am the next day for roadside….and then be expected back at 830am for shop duty. Some nights are more stress than others but often (like last night) he works 830am to 5 in the shop and then did not get home from road calls till 5am. Is there any legal requirement that allows him a break before going back? He is so wiped I often worry about him, being on the side of the interstate under a big ass semi while exhausted ain't OK :/
