Discussion
Based on the statements and conclusions regarding The Factories Act-1948 given below, select the correct option.
Statements:-
I. Provisions regarding Weekly holidays have been discussed in Section 52 of the the Factories Act-1948.
II. Provisions regarding Compensatory holidays have been discussed in Section 53 of the the Factories Act-1948.
Conclusions:-
I. Not adult worker shall be required or allowed to work in a factory for more than nine hours in any day.
II. Adult workers in a factory each day shall be so fixed that no period shall exceed five hours and that no worker shall work for more than five hours before he has had an interval for rest of at least half an hour.
Answer: D
Neither conclusion follows. The statements are about the sections on weekly holidays, Section 52, and compensatory holidays, Section 53. The conclusions are about the daily hours of work of an adult worker, the nine-hour limit and the interval for rest, which are different provisions about daily hours and are not derived from the statements.
Hence both conclusions are unrelated to what the statements say, even if each is a rule found elsewhere in the Act. The option that only Conclusion I follows, only II follows, or both follow is therefore wrong.
