Reject the ＂996＂ work system! People-oriented can achieve long-term development.

　　News background:　

　　Recently, there was a news in the programmer world that someone launched a project called "996.ICU" on the well-known code hosting platform GitHub to resist the "996" working system. This move was immediately responded by a large number of programmers. The so-called "996" refers to working from 9 am to 9 pm every day, working 6 days a week; "996.ICU" means "Work 996, sick ICU (Intensive Care Unit)".

　　"996"-The unbearable burden for young people

　　For Internet companies, "996" is nothing new. Not long ago, an e-commerce company advocated "996" and "persuading divorce" in a high-profile way, which triggered a frenzy of public criticism and unveiled the chaos of employment in the industry. Moreover, the "996" working mode is only one kind, and there are also popular working modes such as "247", "white plus black" and "5+2" in the workplace, all of which are extremely long overtime and high-intensity work, and even some companies compare overtime hours with each other and take pride in overtime culture.

　　Undoubtedly, every generation and everyone has their own pressure, which comes from society, family and themselves. As the saying goes, "People are light without pressure." Everyone’s growth and progress really need some pressure, and in the process of resolving the pressure, they can constantly break through themselves and move towards a higher stage of life. However, stress also depends on whether it is positive motivation or anxiety, and whether it exceeds the burden of young people to some extent. If the pressure loses its positive incentive function and is beyond the tolerance of young people, young people will inevitably lose their spirit and vitality and become depressed. [detailed]　

　　Don’t let the unique phenomenon spread to more industries

　　Some media said that China society is entering an era of "explosion" of young people’s pressure. In 2018, CBN Weekly released the Report on the Survey of Urban People’s Stress. The results showed that 30.24% of the respondents felt stress several times a day, while 43.3% thought that the pressure they were under was too great for them to eat. In addition, a survey conducted by the China Academy of Social Sciences shows that in 2017, the average leisure time in Chinese was only 2.27 hours, and the average leisure time in the United States, German and other countries was more than twice that in Chinese. In addition, statistics show that the incidence of depression and sudden death in China is increasing year by year. Under pressure, some people will suddenly collapse because of a small matter, and some people will "work 996 and get sick in ICU". Although there are only a few cases, this phenomenon can not be ignored and may continue to intensify, and we must find ways to curb it. [detailed]

　　In the legal sense, the legitimacy of the "996" work system is obviously in doubt. It directly converts overtime work into normal working hours for employees, and even wraps this mechanism with words, giving it some cultural and moral colors. For example, those who are willing to accept are regarded as active, enterprising and have dreams, while those who are not active in cooperation may be reprimanded as greedy for comfort and muddling along. In this context, it is almost impossible for individuals to say "no" to this mechanism. It is said that if you don’t accept the 996 working system, you can jump to other industries. Not to mention that this statement avoids the legitimacy of employees’ rights protection, and also ignores that today’s "996" work system is not only a unique phenomenon of Internet startups, but is spreading to more industries. This phenomenon should inspire the labor inspection department to pay more attention and intervention. [detailed]

　　Sacrificing the development of employees can’t meet the future of the industry

　　The initial stage and development stage of an industry can be fought by biting one’s teeth, but the development at the expense of employees’ normal life and rest time is unsustainable, which not only lays hidden dangers for employees’ health, but also cannot usher in the future of an industry. Some critics say: Programmers are drained before they are 30 years old. "Go to work 996, sick ICU", although it is ridicule, is enough to alert related companies. Only work and no life, in such a state, even if employees have high salaries, where does happiness come from? The "996" working system should not be the norm in any industry, not only Internet enterprises. [detailed]

　　Overtime is the norm and no overtime pay is given. Whether it is beautified into corporate culture or dedicated, the essence behind it is that the boss is playing the wishful thinking of saving costs and squeezing employees. On the issue of labor rights protection, trade union organizations at all levels and labor rights protection departments should take action when it is time to do so. This is the responsibility, the inevitable requirement of regulating the market, and the proper meaning of governing the country according to law. From a broader perspective, China’s economy has shifted from a high-speed growth stage to a high-quality development stage. High-quality development involves not only ecological protection, but also people-oriented. [detailed]

　　Speak with great justice:　

　　@ Eternal Land, the sea is dry and the rocks are rotten: It doesn’t matter if you work overtime, as long as you pay overtime.

　　@ Name a name that is hard to find: "996" or "867"?

　　@ 京京京京: Not only programmers, but many positions are like this. Who is not tired?

　　@ 丫丫丫丫丫丫丫丫: Civil engineering is "007" …

　　Editor’s Note of Economic Daily-China Economic Net:　

　　In fact,existUnder the "996" working condition, employees are likely to reduce their work efficiency because they can’t get enough rest time. The "996" working system is essentially "forced overtime". In the increasingly perfect market competition and diversified employment choices, any enterprise and even industry can’t do without talent reserve and management. If some enterprises and industries can’t fully realize the importance of employees, achieve people-oriented, and still squeeze employees and sacrifice employees at the cost of development, then even if they have a large scale of operation, they can’t guarantee to retain talents continuously.
