NOTICE – LUNCH BREAK
NOTICE
TEA/REFRESHMENT/LUNCH BREAK
The general rule on breaks under Indian Shop Act is that you are entitled to a break of 30 minutes after a 6 hours work period. There is no entitlement to be paid during these breaks and they are not considered part of working time.
The Institute already provides for Lunch break after 3.5 hours of work from 1300 HRS to 1330 HRS. Therefore every employee must be in the office sharp at 9.15 am.
We all are responsible for lots of non academic work, which can be taken at this time. However staff members can take a cup of tea/coffee in between the academic periods. The morning breakfast break seen extended to 9:50 am is strictly prohibited from now on wards.
