Hi, my Expert Friends,
We have a 5-day working office (Monday to Friday) with Saturday and Sunday off. We work for 9.5 hours per day. Now, if I call any employee to work on Saturday, how should I compensate them? Do I need to give them compensatory time off in the forthcoming week or pay them according to the overtime rate, or both?
For some employees, we have a 6-day working schedule, 8 hours per day. If such an employee is called to work on Sunday, do I have to give them compensatory time off in the forthcoming week or pay them according to the overtime rate, or both?
We are covered under the Shops & Establishment Act. Experts, please provide your feedback.

Dear Mukesh,
I believe all the employees are white-collar employees. If yes, generally they do work on Saturdays or Sundays if the workload cannot be finished. Normally, you do not need to compensate them as they come in to finish their work (Hope you are not forcing them to). If the workload is too much and these guys are working overtime, you need to add a couple more employees to the department.

Dear Mukesh,
In our company, if any of the employees come in on Saturday or Sunday, they have two options:
1) They can take a Compensatory Off in lieu of it.
2) They can encash it. We have fixed an amount as per the grade.
Note: We do not pay or provide Comp. Off to Managers and above. It is applicable only for supervisors and executives.

Dear all,
I want to inform you that if any employee is required to work on their day off, then we must provide compensation in accordance with the relevant acts and legal requirements applicable to the company for such payments. Failure to do so may necessitate the hiring of additional manpower for the organization.
Under the Factory Act of 1948, any employee working overtime is entitled to receive double their normal rate of pay.
Thanks & Regards,
