According to the latest data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, the average weekly working hours of employees in enterprises across the country reached 48 in November 20239 hours, an increase of 02 hours, an increase of 12 hours, the highest level since statistics began. However, when I saw the comment area of this **, I found that everyone's ridicule and discussion of this data triggered me to think. Exactly 48 working weekWhat was the 9-hour crowd like?In order to better understand this problem, this article will take DJI drones as an example to analyze the overtime phenomenon and wage levels, aiming to find a balance in the current situation and achieve work-life harmony.
The accumulation of man-hours has become a common phenomenon in many companies in modern society, and DJI drones, as a well-known company, are no exception. Although on paper, it does not strictly force employees to work overtime, in reality, due to the heavy workload and time constraints, the average DJI drone employee needs to work at least 3 hours of overtime a day and take no more than 2 days off per month. This situation is not unique, and many migrant workers face a similar dilemma. For those who have to work overtime in order to make a living, they have no choice but to choose to work desperately. This phenomenon of excessive overtime has even led to the occurrence of some sudden deaths, which makes people wonder if life is only work for migrant workers
According to the national labor law, workers cannot work more than 60 hours per week and 36 hours of overtime per month. However, in practice, these regulations are difficult to strictly enforce. Due to the constraints of actual profit margins and the pressure of demand, many companies have to rely on excessive overtime of employees to meet market demand. In order to make a living, migrant workers have to continue to endure on the bottom line of the law.
Behind the phenomenon of overtime, there is also a huge pressure on the daily life of migrant workers. Taking Shanghai's minimum wage of 2,560 yuan as an example, if there are fewer overtime opportunities, then the wages received by migrant workers will also be reduced. In order to pursue a higher income, workers can only minimize overtime hours. This is in stark contrast to the wage incentives offered by Tesla. Even Tesla's front-line employees only work 36 hours of overtime per month, but their wages can reach four or five thousand yuan. This makes workers realize that raising the basic salary and arranging working hours reasonably will not only not have much impact on the profits of the enterprise, but can improve the work enthusiasm and quality of life of employees.
However, the reality is that most businesses still rely on endless overtime to meet market demand, making it difficult for workers to maintain a work-life balance. They have to deal with all kinds of pressures in their lives, from financial burdens to time constraints, and they are toiling around every day to make ends meet. This state of life leaves them with no time to take care of their physical and mental health, and they can't really enjoy the quality time outside of work.
In the current situation, how can migrant workers break the situation and achieve work-life harmony?First of all, we need to recognize that work is not the only focus of life, and when we take a longer view, we may find that the pursuit of money is not the whole point of life. Entrepreneurs also called on young people not only to look at the immediate benefits, but to have a more long-term vision and work hard for the long-term development of the company, so as to get more income returns.
Second, migrant workers also need to actively strive for better working conditions and treatment. Discussing with companies about more reasonable working hours, compensation systems, and benefits to ensure that workers' rights and interests are protected is the key to achieving work-life balance. At the same time, the protection and supervision of workers' rights and interests should be strengthened, and a more fair and perfect system of labor laws and regulations should be established to ensure that the labor rights and interests of workers are better protected.
Finally, personal self-management is also an important factor in achieving work-life balance. Migrant workers need to arrange their time reasonably and make full use of the rest time to relax physically and mentally and cultivate personal hobbies. At the same time, cultivating a positive and optimistic attitude and a correct attitude towards life will also help reduce work stress and anxiety, and maintain physical and mental health and balance.
In the current situation, 48 hours per weekThe 9-hour part-time worker became the focus of discussion. Overtime and low wages put a lot of pressure on migrant workers, making it difficult for them to strike a work-life balance. However, by raising wages, rationalizing working hours, and enacting better labor laws and regulations, we can hopefully achieve work-life harmony. Everyone is the master of life, we should protect our rights and interests, and actively seek a lifestyle that suits us, so that work is part of a happy life, rather than making life only work.
