Dear Seniors,
I have some queries
1. Whether paid holidays ( e.g. Diwali, Dassera, ) which are given to company employees are also applicable to contract labours ?
2. As per Factories Act we have to pay Overtime to them who are working beyond 9 hrs a day & above 48 hrs in a week. but my senior has informed me to pay over time to the labours who are working beyond 208 hrs in a month. This means if somebody will work on holiday & due to some reason he was absent for next day then he will be paid only normal wages for the holiday working & not Overtime. & if some body will work beyond daily working hours then the extra working hours shall be considered normal working hours for completing 26 working days. Whether there are any law under which we can pay like this to contract laburs?
