What do you think of Inspur Group’s overtime slogan?

Looking at Inspur Group’s overtime slogan: From individuals who dream of realizing value to enterprises hoping to grow and develop, they are all inseparable from hard work and the spirit of struggle. But advocating struggle cannot “glorify overtime.” Most working people hope to get off work on time: to spend time with their families, to exercise and have fun, or to develop hobbies to relieve the fatigue of a day's work.

Most people can understand that under special circumstances, if you encounter urgent work and work overtime to complete the work. However, Inspur Group tried to publicly hang slogans in the office area, use the overtime slogan as a creative idea, and promote overtime as a normal state. This is the epitome of a deformed overtime culture and a disregard for laws and regulations.

Working overtime is not necessarily a good thing, but breaking the law is definitely not good. As a long-established large enterprise, it should take the lead in complying with laws and regulations and become a role model in the industry. Advocating hard work cannot forcefully instill a culture of overtime. If it is indeed a temporary need for work, working overtime is also a kind of struggle and dedication. But the majority of workers are resistant to it.

Often it is not overtime itself, but abnormal "ineffective overtime" and "passive overtime". For example, some leaders don't like employees leaving earlier than themselves. They feel that working overtime can create greater value for the company, so they force employees to accompany them. They think that this kind of overtime is a struggle, and they also regard whether they work overtime as a performance appraisal criterion.

As a result, "formalistic overtime" has become a common practice: some employees have completed their jobs diligently during working hours and do not need to work overtime, but they have no choice but to go home. Even though he is not working, he can only "pretend" to perform. In reality, some companies strongly advocate overtime culture.

In order to reduce labor costs, employees are encouraged to work overtime in disguise to share the workload. Over time, those who refuse to work overtime not only become outliers, but also face the risk of reduced income or even disguised layoffs. Some employees have no choice but to comply with the corporate culture and sacrifice their rest time, using extremely long working hours to cash in monetary compensation.

A modern corporate governance model must not only modernize the technical level, but also have a "people-oriented" system design and pay attention to the emotional management of employees. The abnormal overtime culture seriously damages the physical and mental health of employees, and it also misinterprets and deviates from the spirit of struggle. A company must remain competitive in the market.

You can’t go far by relying on employees to work overtime. Encourage hard work, but also learn to work skillfully. Rather than "pressing" employees to their workstations, it is better to streamline internal processes and improve operational efficiency. Extending working hours is a struggle, and improving efficiency is even more of a struggle.
