Our company is currently in its infancy period. We have a combination of employees, including those on the payroll and third-party contract workers (TPC).
The management is considering giving compensatory time off to these blue-collar TPC workers. However, I am unsure if comp. off can be given to workers. I recall reading that comp. off is typically allowed for staff, not workers.
Could someone provide clarification on this matter, please?

Hi Gayatri, please read Section 53 of the Factories Act.
