Go to work at 9 am and get off work at 2 1 in the evening, working six days a week. Now the labor law stipulates that it is eight hours a day and five days a week. The 996 working system is equivalent to working overtime 4 hours a day, working overtime on Saturday 12 hours, and working overtime 32 hours a week. The Labor Law stipulates that overtime shall not exceed 3 hours per day and 36 hours per month. According to the data, the 996 working system is a serious violation of the relevant provisions of the labor law.
However, in order to support their families and keep their jobs, many employees in private enterprises have to accept the pressure of enterprises and implement the 996 working system, especially in those internet companies. Such high-intensity work will inevitably cause great harm to employees' body and mind. It is unreasonable for employees to have less and less free time.
