Hello, Everyone
I am a student of HR , while doing presentation of Factories Act 1948 my teacher asked me about the height of the wall of factory workshop and the proportion of windows for ventilation on wall, so may I know if is their any prescribed rule for measurement for wall's size and windows proportion.

That's an interesting question, i must say. Even I was not aware of the above fact. But one day the Factory inspector paid a visit and started the measurement after disclosing the present rule .
