The truth about working overtime.
Editor’s note: This article is from WeChat public account “Human Resources Sharing Exchange” (ID :hrgogogo), author HRGO.
Now, when it comes to overtime, many people have such a scene in their minds: sweatshops, capitalists’ faces, exploiting workers…
After a while, a HR found us saying: “Working overtime for 7 consecutive weeks until late at night, but dare not resign!”
In his eyes, their company is also a sweatshop, but the body does not say anything.
Why?
01
In fact, discussing overtime, most people are ass to decide their heads.
Someone will spit out overtime is the unique hobby that will draw cakes, will fool employees, and the bosses crush the employees. There are indeed many such bosses, and quite a few.
But I am good at fish when I go to work, buy something online, I will chat with my friends for a while, and I will go out for a cigarette… You have seen it, and there are not a few employees.
There are two characteristics of the two people standing together. They are rarely evaluated, but they are good at lifting the bar.
Starting from your own interests and spitting on each other, you can’t solve any problems. However, when we talk about overtime, you will find that this is basically the rhythm.
What is the nature of overtime?
02
The essence of overtime is: You have the power to not work overtime, see if you have the capital to say NO.
This kind of power, you can use it at any time, without restrictions. Even during the interview, you can agree with HR in advance: I can’t accept overtime, I have to get off work every day. The question is, can you say this sentence?
The talent market is in line with the basic balance of supply and demand in economics. HR knows that this is a free market. No one has prevented you from resigning, no one has tied you to the station with a rope, and no one has stopped you from choosing 955 for a relaxed and high-paying job.
In the case of a full flow of talent, people who complain about overtime but are unwilling to go, the reason behind this, your heartIt must be clear.
So, in fact, there are no people who are really forcing you to work overtime.
The ability to not choose people who do not work overtime, they have already lived a different way of living. Most of the people who survive in this gap are those who have no ability to change.

If you really have a company that doesn’t have a future, there is no point or gain in working overtime. Everyone is forced to overtime by the pressure of the boss, and spends nothing at the company. Friends circle, then can’t see any growth.
A company like this, I advise you to leave early.
Only complaining and not being able to leave is your problem, not a company problem.
If you choose not to leave, don’t always open your mouth and say, “I’m working overtime, my overtime pay?”
If you open your mouth and talk about overtime, you have to pay overtime. I want to ask, do you never need to work overtime now? Do you go to work on time every day? Are you working at the company for a minute without wasting?
If you waste time in the company and don’t work, does HR give you less wages?
If you really know that there is a job that doesn’t require overtime, you can make people grow and make a fortune?
Please tell me the first time, thank you very much.

You know, for you and me, each of us is 24 hours a day, no one is 36 hours a day.
When you experience happiness, others are working hard to delay happiness. When others delay happiness, please don’t complain and envy others to achieve success.
Uval said in A Brief History of the Future: There will be a lot of useless levels in the future.
What do you mean? There is a level in the future that is uncompetitive. They will always be in their own comfort zone, and will not have any value to the society and the future.
Now many Western countries have this trend. Many young people, who are unwilling to work and holding high social supplies, seem to be enviable.
But from the perspective of human evolution, this choice is degenerating and weakening. This is the fastest way to abolish people.
When the external environment changes, the first to be eliminated is this type of person. The similarities around us are: elevator floor staff, high-speed toll collectors, office typists, etc.
Last, you will find: truePeople who are trying to do things and capable people are getting more and more busy. The richer people are more busy and more willing to work overtime.

When I mentioned the “overtime pay”, you may not be convinced. Shouldn’t there be overtime pay for overtime work?
I tell you some facts. Is it a violation of the Labor Law that the company is forced to work overtime without overtime? If you are more serious, you will find that in the same case, the judgment will be different in each place. Even in a city, the judgments of different districts and counties will be different.
The Labor Law clearly states that this matter of “overtime work” is: “When a company violates laws and regulations to force workers to extend their working hours, workers have the right to refuse.”
Look, you can choose to refuse.
The question is, do you have the courage to choose to refuse?
In addition, what is mandatory for “mandatory”? To what extent is it mandatory? Is there a level of compulsory? Still no difference? These things, even if they are a lawyer, may not give you an accurate answer.
Article 41 of the Labor Law also stipulates: “If an employer needs to extend working hours due to special reasons, it shall not extend the working time for more than 3 hours per day under the conditions of ensuring the health of all laborers. But no more than 36 hours a month.”
So, in a company, there is no “overtime pay”, sometimes it is a metaphysics.
A lawyer around me told me that the duty of lawyers in charge of the Labor Law is to unite employers and employees to prevent this legal pit.
This is the truth about “overtime pay.”
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, I posted a statutory holiday table in China, and I was comforted by it. After all, I’m going to have a holiday:
About overtime, you are also welcome to leave your opinion in the comments section.
