How wrong to ever be punished physically from a job, tragic basic human rights abuses, part of the unhealthy controlling systems, and bad for humanity.
Regardless of the number, the sheer fact that it’s legal for a company to prescribe a physical punishment is insane.
China doesn’t enforce the laws against their rich.
For instance they banned 6-12’s, 6 days a week 12 hour a day factory schedules, (naturally for starvation wages,) but the factories still make them work it and the government doesn’t do anything. The law was just so they looked civilized apparently.
It’s not a one off either, their companies routinely dump toxic waste in violation of their laws for instance. Half of their workers in some cities aren’t residents of those cities, and are illegal there. They can be fired, arrested, beaten up, imprisoned, at any time on their employer’s word. Shit is fucked.
It’s not.
Zhang admitted to violating labour laws
Well at least there’s that. Too bad it had to get that far to even be reported.
It’s incredibly fucked up for sure.
Zhang [her team manager] admitted to violating labour laws but insisted that the issue had nothing to do with the company.
Is that distinction actually important in China? Most places, it’s the company’s responsibility to train managers to try to keep them from breaking labor laws.
According to labour law, if an employer insults or physically punishes employees, the responsible personnel may face detention for up to 15 days.
“Zhang should be detained for 15 days,” insisted an online observer.
“The young lady should recognise that no job is more important than her health,” remarked another.
Sheesh.
So i Will get paid on the clock to do squats? Hmmm
Lots of people get paid to disregard their well-being. Doesn’t make it worth it.
It’s squats chill 😂😂
A Chinese woman developed life-threatening muscle breakdown after her company forced her to perform 200 squats as punishment for unfinished work.
At the hospital, she was diagnosed with rhabdomyolysis, a serious condition where damaged muscle tissue breaks down rapidly, releasing its components into the bloodstream.
If present in large quantities, these components can harm the kidneys and potentially lead to life-threatening kidney failure.
Yang’s diagnosis revealed that her creatine kinase level exceeded 16,000 U/L, whereas a level of 1,000 U/L is typically sufficient for a diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis.
Haha so funny, just chill!
A poor woman desperate for work nearly died but just chill guys it’s only squats. The hell is wrong with you?
Well China is a communist SHITHOLE what do you expect?
You to have a shred of empathy for a person?
I do, but this is what happens when people allow their government to be run by commie socialists
Ew what are you a capitalist?
I don’t like commies either, but you’re making us look bad.
You see, this woman isn’t a superhero like you, and she can’t even rid herself of a single commie socialist. You should fly to China and show them all how it’s done.
They will build a statue of you like the Statue of Liberty, and all will look to you and admire your leadership.
Are not muscles supposed to break down and build up when working out?!
Teeney tiny bits over time to allow your body to recover and adapt to create a new baseline.
This was destroy everything to the degree that the damaged tissue contents are now poisoning vital organs and threatening death.
Yes, but Rhabdomyolysis is too much breakdown.
Part of me wants to say that 200 unweighted squats done in small manageable batches shouldn’t be that bad, but the average office person is in remarkably poor fitness condition, so it’s not implausible.

I slept too hard last night and pray for the sweet release of death, or a new neck.
200 is a lot more than it sounds like. Doing 50 at a time is taxing.
she developed a medical condition where the breakdown is excessive and enters the bloodstream possibly threatening the kidneys, she went on a TV show that helps people sue abusive companies, apparently healthcare in China is also garbage…
apparently healthcare in China is also garbage…
Both are so called Superpowers.
