Do you mean a weekly rest period?
If it is for operational needs. I don’t see why not

You cannot be forced to do anything
If you are being ASKED to take a reduced rest and it is legal for you to do so then it is YOUR CHOICE whether to do it or not
If you do refuse for anything other than a safety or legal reason then it could be that your employer will view that in a dim light and the rest of your time at the company could mean you get every crap job going etc until you leave
