Dear Senior members,
I'm working in a real estate company and just joined. After joining, I realized that sitting late here (till 9 PM) is a trend since our boss thinks it's productive. We also do not have any transportation facility.
I wanted your help to know if there are any laws or rules that disallow women to work after 8 PM. We are in Mumbai; however, the safety issue while traveling alone is the same. And a few women employees travel from really far.
I request your help so that I can prove to management that making women work after 8 PM is lawfully wrong.
Kindly revert with anything you can help. Looking to stop this trend.
From India, Mumbai
