Once work for factory, they are covered under FA.
Any work over and above 9 hrs a day or 48 hrs a week attract overtime/ extra time as per std order/ settlements.

Depends upon the contract / terms of appointment. Since the employment is through contractor, the company would observe its terms of hiring services from the contractor, any difference of opinion in any working hours would be dealt with the contractor legally and the Company would not accept any responsibility in this regard.
