@danie10 Maybe it's because in , and is regarded far higher values than one's individual wellbeing?

That's why there is absolutely to the point that people die en massé from being overworked.

as a phenomenon doesn't exist in the West - at least not in that [well documented!] extent.

Con ese “UNDER CONSTRUCTION” los de Karoshi nos tienen con el hype por las nubes.

Mientras tanto, recordamos y nos divertimos con el catálogo de Karoshi Corp. Juegos que ya forman parte de “lo clásico” dentro del homebrew de MSX.

Workers at Amazon Japan are planning to protest in Tokyo on Nov. 25 in opposition to appalling working conditions.

The extreme hours workers endure leave many exhausted and depressed. One worker told the media that “I am being forced to do excessive work and keep driving. If I keep on like this, I might cause an accident or collapse. These packages might kill me.”

I have to put some of this into Japanese to share with my local audience. all the words are in 's book on the but I should be doing something else right now. With Vietnam's policy of exporting labor, "trainees" to to be exploited this comparison will be of interest At least one young worker from has died from while here. There are other issues in the news too. So much to learn!

More people commit suicide in Japan than they die from coronavirus infection. Japan is an extraordinary economic power with many suicides every year among OECD member countries. Causes of death include overwork and bullying.

– Tod durch Arbeit. Ausgerechnet die weisen Japaner? Bei der Arbeit sterben ist eine Ehre? Für die Unternehmen ist das ideal, weswegen die auch nichts "unternehmen". Krass.

diktiert diese Zwangsarbeit nun auf, weil kleingeistige Politiker zu keinen anderen Lösungen fähig sind und sich in der Rolle des Imperators sicher fühlen.

When it comes to , restaurant or izakaya( for dining and drinking) chain comes up first in my mind. All time they lack of workforce and the manager needs to cover up for that. The company hires university students or house wife as part-time. There are few full-time workers, and many people leaving a job very soon. Then the company needs to put like a fresh graduate as a chief manager. Downward spirals coming up, then the overwork kills them.
