Many workers suffer from excessive stress and exhaustion, caused by military-style rigor, repetitive work and long hours over the legal minimum. Worker wages (900 RMB per month) is deemed insufficient to cover basic living expenses in their home city, and thus workers have no choice but to work massive amounts of overtime. | Shenzhen, Guangdong, China | BBC, The Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, China Labor Watch | Abusive Management, Deaths, Excessive Work Hours, Non-Living Wage, Suicides | |
