答案 Should Working Long Hours Be Restricted? Among the regulations that protect employees’ benefits, the most contentious one has always been the compulsory limit on working hours. There are directives preventing workers from being forced to work long hours, because it will lead to more job stress, fewer job openings and lower working efficiency. But some people who oppose restricting working hours point out that working overtime can increase employees’ income as well as their chances for promotion. As for me, I am in support of the limitation on working long hours. In the first place, working long hours will reduce employees’ leisure time and communication with others. As a result, it would be hard for them to maintain and improve their relations with family members and friends, which is detrimental to their lives. Moreover, people are more liable to get fatigued and sick because of the extension of working hours, which is a threat to their health. In addition, working long hours may result in chronic stress and psychological problems. In brief, there might be some exemptions, but the restriction on working long hours should be applied to the majority of workers. And people should learn to love themselves, arrange their time wisely and get enough rest, so that they can perform well at work.
