Dear {Name},
I have considered your proposal for me to work {duties/hours}, and I do not think this is the best use of my skills and time. My regular duties of {regular duties} require {amount of time}, and there is a company policy against more than {amount of time} overtime. Therefore, I will not be able to take on additional duties at this time.
I am CC-ing HR to ensure that I am correctly interpreting company policy. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you,
{Name}
