Staff Abandoned Train Mid-Journey Because Their Shift Was Over, No Action Taken
Norway has one of the world's most stringent labour protection systems. Under the Working Environment Act, employees are entitled to safe working conditions & clearly defined hours In a bizarre yet eye-opening incident from Norway, a train came to a sudden halt midway through its journey, leaving passengers confused and anxious. Initially, travellers assumed the stop was due to a routine signal. But as time passed and the train remained stationary, murmurs of a technical fault began to spread. Some curious passengers even got off to check what had happened. But when the real reason came to light, it shocked everyone. The train staff had simply left as their shift had ended. Under Norwegian labour laws, they weren't required to continue a minute longer. Instead of completing the journey or waiting for replacements, the crew exited and went home. This may sound unbelievable in India, where if a loco pilot or guard's duty extends mid-journey, they are paid overtime but are expected to take the train to its destination. Abandoning a train midway would be unacceptable. But in Norway, labour laws are so strict that workers have the right to leave once their hours are over, even if the train is still en route. What Norwegian Law Says Norway has one of the world's most stringent labour protection systems. Under the Working Environment Act, employees are entitled to safe working conditions and clearly defined hours. Workers are expected to work no more than 40 hours per week or 9 hours per day. Any extra hours must be compensated with at least 40% additional pay. The law is enforced so strictly that no one dared question the crew's decision to leave. They were, after all, simply following what the law allowed them to do. This case highlights how seriously employee rights are taken in countries like Norway. What About India? In India, working hours for railway staff like loco pilots and guards typically stretch up to 48 hours per week, with an 8-hour per day schedule. But overtime is not just common; it's often expected. Staff usually continue their journey until a proper handover is arranged. A situation like Norway's, where a train is left mid-journey due to the end of a shift, would likely cause public outrage here. Norway isn't alone. Countries like France have a 'right to disconnect' law, allowing workers to log off completely after working hours. Germany strictly limits maximum working hours, and similar policies exist in Australia and New Zealand. These rules ensure that work-life balance is respected, and employees are not overburdened.

Khaman Dhokla Recipe: Quick And Easy Way To Make Soft, Fluffy Dhokla At Home
Last Updated: Here's how to make soft, spongy Khaman Dhokla at home with an easy, step-by-step method, a light, tasty snack perfect for breakfast or when guests arrive When it comes to breakfast or a quick and delicious snack for unexpected guests, Khaman Dhokla is often the first dish that comes to mind. Light, fluffy, soft, and incredibly moreish, it's the kind of recipe that, once tried, becomes a regular in your kitchen. Here is an easy and foolproof halwai-style Khaman Dhokla recipe that anyone can master on the first attempt. Step By Step Recipe Step 1: Prepare the Batter In a mixing bowl, take 1.5 cups of water and add sugar, lemon juice, turmeric, salt, and a pinch of asafoetida. Mix everything well. Then add three teaspoons of oil and stir again. Now gradually add the gram flour while whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Sieve the mixture if needed; however, a good whisk usually does the trick. Once mixed, cover the batter and let it rest for 10 minutes. This resting time helps the batter become smooth and improves the final texture of the dhokla. While the batter rests, pour three glasses of water into a deep pan or steaming vessel and bring it to a boil. Make sure the steam starts forming properly before you place the batter inside. Step 3: Add Baking Soda and Steam After 10 minutes, add baking soda to the batter and mix it in quickly. You'll see the batter rise and light bubbles forming, this is what gives dhokla its signature sponginess. Grease a tin or steel container with oil, pour the batter into it, and place it in the hot steamer. Cover it tightly with a lid and steam for 25 minutes. Step 4: Tadka and Serving After 25 minutes, check the dhokla with a toothpick, if it comes out clean, it's ready. Let it cool for 20–30 minutes so it sets well. Meanwhile, prepare a tadka (tempering): heat some oil, add mustard seeds, curry leaves, and slit green chillies. Pour this flavourful tadka over the cooled dhokla after cutting it into squares. Now serve it with green chutney or tamarind chutney and enjoy the compliments that follow! view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
