Mandatory Overtime: A Right to Refuse?

labour cuet_pg beginner discussion

Kya apke parivaar ko majboor karke 12 ghante ka overtime karne ka adhikaar hai? Main yeh samjhunga ki nahin. The Payment of Wages Act, 1936 ko yeh kahta hai ki agar koi shramik ek din mein 12 ghante se adhik kaam karta hai, toh usko ek ghante ka adhikarik bhatta milta hai. Lekin kya aapke dada dadi ko majboor karke 12 ghante ka overtime karne ka adhikar hai? Main yeh janta hoon ki nahin.

Bhai, I truly believe employees deserve the right to refuse OT without penalty. This protects them from exploitation & burnout. The concept of "Right to Refuse" is already in place under The Factories Act 1948. Employers must prioritize employee welfare over profits. We need stricter laws & enforcement to safeguard workers' rights. Kudos to those who're fighting for this cause!
