"Voluntary" overtime in the workplace has become the norm, and the physical and mental health of workers has been damaged. Nearly ninety percent of workers need to work overtime to a greater or lesser extent, and nearly 1% of workers work more than one hour of overtime per day on average.
Half of the workers do not receive any form of compensation after overtime, such as overtime pay, leave, etc. The operation of the national economy in the first quarter of 2023 recently released by the National Bureau of Statistics shows that the average weekly working hours of enterprise employees nationwide were 3.48 hours.
