Hi, I am working in a Real Estate Consulting company based in Pune, Maharashtra. It was a Pvt Ltd company before, which is now renamed to an LLP company. There is a new policy being implemented that states the number of working hours per day will be 9 hours from 10 AM to 7 PM, and work will be conducted 6 days a week, totaling 54 hours per week.
I have tried searching on forums, and most of them state that 9 hours a day and 48 hours a week is the maximum. I want my company to adhere to the proper laws to support the health and mental well-being of employees.
Could someone please provide me with the correct PDF and government website link for this law and guide me? I need an answer today as this policy will be effective from the 1st of January 2018.

Please also let me know what to do in case if an LLP company is forcing you to work for 54 hours a day and also making you do overtime without paying for it. What is the policy for overtime in an LLP company in Pune, Maharashtra.
Thank you.

Hi Mr. Neroyoung,
As per government rules, the maximum working hours per week are 48 hours, with a cap at 60 hours in a week. After 48 hours, we should pay double the salary/wage to the employees. It depends on the organization's policies. Some organizations set 8 hours as a standard workday, and if employees work more than 12 hours, the company will provide additional allowances such as food, lodging, overtime pay, etc.
In such situations, HR should handle certain matters confidentially.

Dear Friend,
I have served with a Construction Company. Each company in the Infra/Constr sector typically has a 10-11 hour working day. Salaries in these companies tend to be on the higher side due to the long working hours. Normally, employees work in two shifts as tasks like cement curing and others need to be completed within those hours.

Hi,
We take a 45-minute lunch break and one short break of 10-15 minutes throughout the entire day. I read somewhere that after 5 hours of working, you are eligible for a 1-hour break, which is counted in the total working hours in a day, totaling 9 hours.
