Dear All,
We are a company registered under the Shops & Establishment Act. We pay overtime to our staff who work more than 9 hours per day. Can anyone help me understand whether overtime has to be paid even for half an hour worked extra on any particular day, or if at least 1 hour of work is required to be eligible for overtime payment?

Under the Bombay Shops and Establishment Act, daily and weekly working hours in shops and commercial establishments are regulated as follows:
No employee shall be required or allowed to work in any shop or commercial establishment for more than nine hours in any day and forty-eight hours in any week.
Any employee may be required or allowed to work in a shop or commercial establishment for any period in excess of the limit fixed above, if such period does not exceed six hours in any week.
On not more than six days in a year, for purposes of making accounts, stock-taking settlements, or other prescribed occasions, any employee may be required or allowed to work in a shop or commercial establishment in excess of the period fixed, if such excess period does not exceed twenty-four hours.
At least one hour of rest for every five hours of work is to be allotted. In the case of a manufacturing commercial establishment, this must be at least half an hour.
