The 996 work mode should be controlled
Preview of issue：
The 996 work mode is more and more common in our daily life. Some entrepreneurs think it is a chance to boom Chinese economy [1]. On the other hand, others consider it to be unhealthy, stressful and it deprives the employees’ free time.
Sides：
Some people approve the benefit of 996 work mode. Under this mode, people work harder than before to chase their dream. In the meantime, due to the fact that China is a developing country, we should spare our effort to boom the economy and make our country prosperous.
Conversely, this work mode may contribute to some bad effects. Firstly, this mode may over-exploit employees and do harm to their health. People who work more than 55 hours will face a higher risk of stroke and heart disease than 40 hours a week. [2] Secondly, what matters most for a majority of people is not how much they earn but how good they feel during work time. That some entrepreneurs take up the employees’ time makes them stressful and unpleasant when they are working. Last but not least, this mode will break work and life balance. Employees do not have leisure time for their hobbies and accompanying their family members.
Resolution：
While the 996 work mode will do harm to employees’ health and take up their free time, relevant rules and regulations should be mode to control this phenomenon.
