Factory Act 1972.<\/p>\n<p>The Factory Act 1948 was amended by the Goa government in 2019 to allow women to work in night shifts. The amendment was made in order to promote gender equality and to provide women with more opportunities in the workforce.<\/p>\n<p>The Factory Act 1948 is a central law that regulates the working conditions in factories in India. The Act prohibits the employment of women in night shifts, except in certain circumstances. The amendment to the Act allows women to work in night shifts in factories in Goa, provided that they have the written consent of their employer and that they are provided with adequate facilities for rest and refreshment.<\/p>\n<p>The amendment to the Factory Act 1948 is a positive step towards promoting gender equality in India. It will allow women to have more opportunities in the workforce and will help to reduce the gender pay gap.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because they are not the Acts that were amended by the Goa government to allow women to work in night shifts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Factory Act 1948&#8243;
