This is not actually hours of work for supervisors or managers. This section prescribes making rules pertaining to:

(1) Declaring who holds confidential or supervisory positions.

(2) Rules relating to spread over and exemptions regarding the hours of work in respect of workers engaged in urgent repairs, etc.

The hours of work as stated have no relevance to supervisors' hours of work but are related to workers only.
