India: How Many Overtime Hours Can I Still Claim After Holiday Work?

India: If I worked on 4 holidays (36 hours) and 36 hours of overtime in this quarter, I was already paid for two holidays (18 hours) and 27 hours of overtime. How many hours can I submit now?

Dear Anonymous,

The information provided by you is not adequate and clear. Is it a holiday or a weekly off?

As per the Factories Act, if one is required to work on a weekly off, he should be given a substitute off within the next three days. If such a substitute weekly off has been granted, for the calculation of the ceiling, the hours worked on the weekly off should not be accounted for.
