Is the 12-hour working day harmful to the body?

When it comes to working in a factory, I believe many people have the same idea as me. What they are most afraid of is going to a factory that works more than ten hours in two shifts. Some people may say that you can only make money by working overtime, and I wouldn’t go to a factory that doesn’t work overtime.

But we have ignored the labor law, which clearly stipulates an 8-hour working day. If everyone works a few hours a day, but the salary remains the same, I think everyone would be happy to change it.

The 12-hour working day is really harmful to employees’ bodies. Maybe young people don't notice it, but as you get older, you will gradually realize that your body is not as good as before. Not only do I suffer from back pain all the time, but I also get colds and fevers from time to time, and my physical condition is not as good as before.

How harmful is working the night shift to your body? Let’s listen to the opinions of migrant workers.

How harmful is working the night shift to your body? Let’s listen to the opinions of migrant workers.

Migrant: The factory operates two 12-hour shifts, which is very tiring, especially the night shift. Going back during the day, especially in summer, is early and very hot. Without air conditioning, it is difficult to sleep during the day. It is noisy outside and hot inside. , if you don’t sleep during the day, you won’t be energetic when you go to work at night, and your body will simply not be able to bear it after a long time. If you are young, you may be able to bear it for a few years. If you are over 30 or 40 years old, you should try to change your profession, unless you are the kind of machine that works all the time. If it's a long one, it might be easier at night, but if it's a piece-rate job, it would be too hard.

Migrant worker: It’s all tears. I would rather starve to death than work 12 hours. This is the backbone of the descendants of the working class. Any company whose working hours exceed 8 hours will be rejected. Never work the night shift! Don't stay up late and work double shifts, even if the salary is 8,000, don't do it. I have been working double shifts for 10 years and now I have all the root causes of it. It's useless to regret it.

Worker: Indeed, this article reflects the current situation of the factory very well. The factory I worked in before used to work 8 hours. Although I didn’t make much money, I wasn’t that tired either. I worked three shifts and later changed to two shifts, which lasted 12 hours. It was very tiring. Especially the night shift. After working 12 hours a day, my body became exhausted within less than a year, and I later resigned.
