Government Transport Corporation should not provide more than 8 hours of work - High Court orders
The madurai branch of the high court has ordered that AITUC union members should not work for more than 8 hours in the State Transport Corporation.
Bodi government Transport Corporation AITUC Secretary Sundar filed a petition in the high court branch: Due to lack of manpower in Dindigul zone in the transport corporation, drivers and conductors are being given 24-hour work on some tracks. As they work 24 hours a day without rest, they are taking a toll both physically and mentally.
Therefore, for the welfare of transport workers and passengers, it should be ordered that they should not work for more than 8 hours in a day and prohibit working for 24 hours. This was requested in the petition.
