The New Indian Express Mangaluru
|June 19, 2025
The Karnataka government's proposal to increase work hours for private firms from the existing nine hours to 10 hours a day is facing stiff opposition from employees of private firms, including the IT/ITeS employees' association.
They have threatened to stage protests and approach the courts.
State labour department officials led by Labour Secretary Rohini Sindhuri interacted with various labour organisations as there is a proposal to bring an amendment to the Karnataka Shops and Commercial Establishment Act, 1961, to fix work time as 10 hours. The government also proposes to increase overtime (OT) from maximum 10 hours to 12 hours a day.
