himself of any exception under sections 99 to 111, shall serve on the chief
inspector and post in his factory notice in the prescribed form of his
intention to do so, as from a date specified in the notice, and shall keep the

himself of the exception.

by this Part, specify the period of employment, and the intervals to be

this Part with respect to overtime, a person employed in pursuance of the
exception shall not be employed otherwise than in accordance with the notice.

(4) A change in the said period of employment or intervals shall not be made
until the occupier has served on the chief inspector, and posted in the
factory, notice of his intention to make the change, and shall not be made
oftener than once in three months, unless for special cause allowed in writing
by the chief inspector.

(5) The Ministry may by order direct that every occupier of a factory availing
