If a company is forcing their employees to exceed the maximum hours, and if they speak against that, they are asked to leave the company. Is there a way to take legal action against them under labor laws?

Dear [Recipient's Name],
If the employer provides you with a one-hour rest interval, then it is in accordance with the law. The employer can schedule work from Monday to Saturday for 8 hours each day.

Dear,
If the company is requiring employees to work extra hours, such as overtime, you can file a claim before the competent court or authority. You may also lodge a complaint with the relevant officer in your area. If the company has the power to terminate your employment, you should also explore the available relief options. Proper advice on service matters cannot be given without considering factors such as the nature of work, supervisory powers, length of service, employment terms and conditions, and remedies available under labor or civil laws.

Dear,
In general, it is 9 hours per day and 48 hours in a week. You must keep in mind both points while determining the working hours for employees covered under any of the labor laws.

Thank you, Mr. R.N. Khola. My question is: if a staff nurse is working in a government hospital and doing shift duty, is she entitled to gazetted holidays and Sundays off? Also, what is the maximum number of work hours allowed in a week? Thank you in advance.

Dear,
In my opinion, employees/staff of government hospitals are governed by the State Civil Service Rules. Therefore, you are to examine those service rules for your query.

Dear all,
According to the Factories Act 1948:
1. Weekly hours: Not more than forty-eight hours in any week, but in a day, the number of hours working can be a maximum of up to 9. So, in a factory, instead of the normal duty hours of 8, we can have 9 hours of duty, subject to a maximum working hours limit in a week of up to 48 hours.
2. For working more than these hours, written permission should be obtained from the labor inspector or through standing orders, and for that, double the rate of pay should be given.
3. However, the maximum number of hours in a week, including overtime, shall not exceed 60. Additionally, the total overtime hours cannot exceed 50 in a quarter (meaning a period of three months).
I hope this information is helpful to all.
Thanks and regards,
