Due to its high population density, the job market in China is insanely competitive which translates to workers being expected to work unreasonable amounts. It’s the same as Japan and South Korea. Basically it’s “well if you won’t work these hours, someone else will because everyone is looking for a job.”
I’m surprised the Chinese government hasn’t made laws to limit that. I guess their economy is humming along pretty well though so maybe they don’t want to rock the boat.
I’m sure they’re working on it. The communist party has been once again tightening their regulations on companies in recent years after they were loosened under Deng.
