Hello PBS KUMAR,

Thank you for the wonderful sharing of information. I would like to seek your opinion on whether I can work for 10 hours daily and for 5 days a week without overtime (my break is half an hour). Your opinion and suggestion are highly valued. Please revert to me at: [Login to view].

Thank you once again.

Hi Sir,

Thank you for the wonderful compilation. I have some queries:

1. Are these applicable to employees in the IT sector? We work in a small IT firm.
2. We work from 10 am to 8 pm every day (with a 20-30 minute break) without any extra payment. Is this legal? Can we demand something?
3. Is the refreshment time inclusive in the daily working hours limit of 8 hours?
4. We work a minimum of 50 hours weekly without any extra payment. Can we demand something?

I hope to hear your guidance on these matters. Thank you.
