Sir, I had read in abook way back when dealing with a motor transport drivers case that the rule of labour act is not applicable in case of deparetments dealing with transportation of sick and wounded people. Also, you can employ drivers/labour on a duty of 12 hours subject to a maximum duty of 8 hours. The logic I was told was that a driver doesnot drive continuously for 12 hours. He takes rest in between, however, the total driving time doesnot exceed 8 hours. I am unable to locate the clause. Kindly provide, Thanks

Dear member,
Please refer to factory Act 1948, maximum hours of overtime in a quarter can be performed by a workman is 50 hours. Overtime is paid in double of the wages. It is not advisable to allow any worker to perform OT hours more than his /her regular duty hours. If feasible than consider for hiring more manpower instead of allowing excessive OT hours.

Like water which has no shape of its own but borrows the same from its container, in respect of statutory conditions of service and employment benefits, contract labor is a distinct form of indirect labor which derives the rights and benefits of employment from the labor laws applicable to the principal employer's establishment wherein their services are engaged through their respective contractor.
Therefore, the extent of over time work and the rate of over time wages of contract labor would be as per the provisions of the establishment-specific labor law applicable to the principal's establishment or the Minimum wages Act,1948 as the case be.
