Amit is a Bus Conductor with the DTC. He could not come report for duty one day due to an emergency at home. He could not inform his Supervisor also. As a result, the bus scheduling got disrupted causing a chain reaction and inconvenience to passengers. The next day Amits Supervisor refused to allow him to resume his work. Instead, after asking him to wait for a couple of hours, the Supervisor handed to him a signed order dismissing Amit from service (the order was signed by the supervisor). Is it OK? Prabha has recently joined a BPO in Gurgaon as a CSR. From next week she has been asked to report for duty in the night shift from 10 pm to 6 am. Can this be done? Balwant is a Welder Grade I in the MUL factory at Manesar. His duty hours are from 8 am to 12 Noon and then again from 5pm to 9 pm. He, therefore, works for 8 hours during a day. Is this OK?
