Sarfan studies in class nine and works in a shop because of poverty. If he starts work at 2 pm, when will he be off according to the 2006 Labour Act?

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a 7 pm
  2. b 8 pm
  3. c 9 pm
  4. d 10 pm
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: a 7 pm

An adolescent works 5 hours a day; five hours from 2 pm is 7 pm, and work after 7 pm is barred.

Why the other options are wrong

  • b 8 pm: Work until 8 pm exceeds five hours and runs past 7 pm, which is barred.
  • c 9 pm: 9 pm is beyond the five-hour limit and the barred time after 7 pm.
  • d 10 pm: 10 pm means eight hours of work; the daily limit for an adolescent is five hours.
