What Working Full-Time Does To Our Health: Is It Really Worth It?
Manage episode 293397020 series 2584261
Working full-time gives a person financial stability, but to what extent? Jason Wrobel and Whitney Lauritsen discuss the issues of overworking, corporate jobs, and capitalism that create a dent in the life of the working-class society. Today, more and more people realize that corporations are taking advantage of them by asking them to put on more hours but are getting paid less than they should be. Capitalism is an ongoing issue for many years, and it has caused more than just people to lose their jobs, but their health as well. A study shows that clocking in more than 55 hours a week can cause serious health issues, but corporations are not doing anything. What could be the future of working full-time in corporate jobs when employee health is not prioritized in big companies?
