Gujarat Govt's Ordinance Allows 12-Hour Workday For Factory Workers, Night Shift For Women
New Delhi: The Gujarat government has amended the key provisions of the Factories Act, 1948 by promulgating an ordinance which has allowed it to in the daily working hours of factory workers from nine to twelve, while capping the weekly working limit at 48 hours. The Factories (Gujarat Amendment) Ordinance, 2025, issued on July 1 by the Labour, Skill Development and Employment department, also permits the employment of women in night shifts under a set of conditions, reported Indian Express. The ordinance, promulgated and brought into effect at a time while the state assembly is not in session, seeks to provide 'relaxation to the factories to boost economic activities, attract investment in national importance to new projects and generate employment.' It amends the Section 54 of the Factories Act which allows the state government to notify an increase in daily working hours up to 12 hours, including rest intervals, subject to a maximum of 48 hours in any week. It adds that the increased hours depend on the written consent of the worker. The amended Section 54 also allows the state to extend, through notification, the number of continuous working hours without interval from five to six. According to the ordinance, workers will get overtime wages at twice the ordinary rate and it also ordinance increases the quarterly cap on overtime hours from the existing 75 to 125, subject to the worker's written consent. The ordinance permits employment of women in night shifts from 7 pm to 6 am subject to 16 conditions such as mandatory preventive measures against sexual harassment, proper lighting and CCTV coverage in and around the workplace, a minimum batch size of 10 women workers per shift, deployment of female security personnel, and provision of safe transportation. It adds that no woman worker shall be compelled to work night shifts and that written consent will be required from those willing to opt in night shifts.

Women petition HC for resumption of bike taxi services
Bengaluru: A group of women passengers have approached the Karnataka High Court requesting that bike taxi services, including those offered by Ola, Uber, and Rapido, be allowed to operate again in the city. The petition argues that bike taxis are a safe, affordable, and convenient mode of travel, especially for daily commuters, and the ban imposed by the state government citing safety concerns was enacted without properly consulting women users. Senior advocate Jayna Kothari, representing the interests of women commuters, argued before a division bench of Acting Chief Justice V. Kameshwara Rao and Justice C.M. Joshi that bike taxis offer an accessible travel solution, particularly for women, and their voices must be heard before enacting any blanket bans. Citing independent national-level studies that recommend bike taxis as a viable last-mile connectivity solution, she urged the court to direct the government to reconsider its stance. Uday Holla, senior counsel appearing for Rapido, pointed out that other states like Tamil Nadu and Kerala have lifted similar bans and now allow bike taxis. He argued that Bengaluru's unique metro network, with only two operational lines, leaves a large gap in last-mile connectivity, which bike taxis can effectively address. Further, the counsels claimed that the ban is influenced by lobbying from auto unions and lacks consideration for commuter interest. 'Since the ban, Bengaluru has seen an 18% increase in traffic congestion,' they added, noting that the argument of women's safety is being misused to justify the restrictions. The petitioners also highlighted that the central government has already introduced the 'Motor Vehicle Aggregator Guidelines – 2025', permitting private two-wheelers to be used for passenger transport. This framework allows states to decide on the implementation, making Karnataka's decision crucial in shaping the future of bike taxi services. The High Court is hearing appeals from major operators like Ola, Uber, and Rapido, who have argued that despite existing guidelines allowing registration, their applications have been rejected. The bench has postponed further hearings, with the final outcome hinging on the state government's stand and judicial interpretation. Meanwhile, following a temporary ban by the High Court, the Transport Department has intensified crackdowns, seizing over 100 bike taxis operating in violation of court orders. Some operators were reportedly continuing services under the guise of parcel delivery. The court's upcoming verdict is expected to play a decisive role in determining the future of bike taxi services in Karnataka.
