In shops and commercial establishments the working hours is 8 hours and any hour extended should be paid at double the rate. But there are companies which require their employees to work for more than 8 hours. Occasionally it is okay and we should do it even if the employer is not paying overtime wages. But making it 11 hours every day is illegal and should not be allowed. In your case, the salary that you receive is another issue because in Kerala I don't think that any sector has a minimum wages (notified by the government) which is less than Rs 18000 per month. But the thing is that if you escalate it, you will be out of the organisation and will end up in industrial dispute. A complaint to the Asst. Labour Officer of the place where your shop is located would bring you justice. But that will spoil the relationship. Even otherwise the media in Kerala is politically inclined to right political parties and are trying their level best to find an opportunity to establish that kerala is not investment friendly! The fact is like this, a state will become investment friendly it it allows the employers to exploit the working class and deviate from the labour laws!
