I have a notification of the Government of India in which it has mentioned that"Drivers—The work of a transportation of stores by itself cannot be said to be incidental to or connected with the manufacturing process. Transport drivers performing the above duties outside the factory would not be covered by the definition." But this notification is pertaining Admissibility of overtime pay to non-industrial employees under the factories Act, 1948. Find the said notification
