Chhattisgarh Workers Win: No 10-Day Work Streaks Allowed

Chhattisgarh has enacted the <b>Labour Code 2026</b>, a major shift for daily wage earners. The new rules strictly cap regular work at <b>8 hours a day</b> and 48 hours a week, ensuring every worker gets at least one day off. For years, contractors exploited loopholes to force long, unpaid shifts. This new law shuts down that abuse by mandating <b>overtime pay</b> and alternative leave if you work on your rest day. This is a direct win for your pocket and health. No more forced 10-day streaks without breaks. Check your contract to ensure you are getting the full benefits you are legally owed.
