Can female workmen be employed for night work?

Question

Accepted Answer

Yes, female workmen can work during the night (from 11pm to 6am the next morning).

However, the Employment (Female Workmen) Regulations for female workmen prevent them from working at night while pregnant, unless they have given their written consent. A doctor must also certify them fit for night work.
