Antiwork

Forced to stay over due to all dayshift employees calling in. Should I be payed extra?

For context, where I work we have the normal day, evening, and night shifts; however, our job responsibilities are broken down and then assigned by letters A to F. A-C is dayshift, D-E is evening, and F is nightshift. I work the nightshift and on multiple occasions I've had to stay over to cover multiple call-ins, which means I'm alone to take on the responsibilities of 2-3 people at once. I don't mind helping out, but I don't feel as though I'm being payed adequately for not only stay over, but taking on new responsibilities that are otherwise not expected of me. Is there something I can do about this? I'm only being payed overtime for it, but I feel like I should be getting far more. All advice is welcome!
