A.Dear client,
Under the overtime payment rules in India, overtime wages are paid in two ways – either on a per hour rate or a per piece rate in factories.
- In the per hour or hourly rate, the per hour wage of an employee is calculated and double the amount is paid for every extra working hour.
- In per piece method, an employee is paid overtime for every extra piece made during the overtime period.

So talk to your employer, and if he still continues to be contravening these provisions would be liable for punishment of imprisonment up to 2 years and fine of up to Rs. 1 lakh or both.
You should file a case under Factories Act, 1948

A.Dear Client
As a general rule for working overtime one should be compensated. Look at the HR manual of your hospital and find out what are the rules on working time and overtime. If nothing is mentioned then you can complain to the labour commissioner.
