Hi all, My best friend is working in a CRO ( (contract research organisation), an MNC located in a techpark at Bangalore). His company is increasing the working timimgs to 9 hrs per day which includes 0.5 hour of lunch break. The company operates 5 days a week. Hence the weekely total working hours (including breaks) will be 9*5=45. My questions are (1) what are the maximum number of hours, my friend is legally allowed to work per day including breaks? (2) what is the minimum duration of break time (lunch or any other breaks) my friend is legally allowed per day? (3) How many minimum leaves (all categoris: casual, sick, etc.,) my friend is legally elegible to take per year? Please quote your answers with the appropriate law/act/reference. So that my friend can raise his voice with a proof in law. Thanks in advance
