Is 4-day work week allowed after New Labour codes roll out? Here's what new work rules say about the work timings

India's new labour codes permit a four-day workweek, allowing employees to complete 48 weekly hours over fewer days. This compressed schedule, requiring up to 12-hour workdays, is optional for both employers and employees. Overtime rules and state-specific daily hour caps remain in effect, influencing adoption across sectors like IT and essential services.
