90-Hour Workweek For FREE? | India Inc's Obsession with Clocking 'Hours' | Akash Banerjee & Rishi

[@thedeshbhakt]

Since a lot of folks asked - I work anywhere between 10 to 12 hours daily on Deshbhakt - because this is my life / passion / purpose. However for the team its rarely more than 8 to 9 hours a day - and SUNDAYS ARE ALWAYS OFF - so that team can stare at wife / girlfriend. :)) I WISH these hours were lesser - (for myself and team) - this is nothing to brag about .... I have seen the health impact of long working hours ..... this is something we will focus on reducing further so that i don't have to stare at my editor all the time! ;)))))

[@BakhtawarGupta6529]

As an economics student I think Marx's theory of surplus value is still relevant seeing such statements. ie. The capitalists make the workers work for lets say 4 more hours but still pay them the same wages. So for eg for the workers work for 12 hours a day rather than the 8 hours and the capitalists still pay them the wage for 8 hours. So the workers have created a value of 12 hours labour but get paid only for 8 hours labour. The suplus 4 units of labour are pocketed by capitalists as profit or reinvested in their business. So Marx has rightly described the problem with theories like suplus value and theory of capitalist development even though he hasn't provided a practical working solution for the same.

Bhai I did not find Canada safe .. I visited there few times . Secondly I hate the fact we Indians who travel stay in 5 star and majority of people who are doing jobs are staying in basement and living a sub standard life . Taxes are pretty bad and things are so expensive. Weather is pethatic, I don't know what any one would live there . Infact if you would have said australia , then I would have full agreed .

I totally agree with you regarding the obsession with hours over the quality of work. even in the institutions, they say, "jo bola gaya hai, wahi karo, apna dimag mat chalao", then how can you expect creativity, if you dont encourage them, rather punish them when the senior's ego hurts.

Deshbakh...I completely agree with your point. I have personally worked at a company in Pune that paid me just 35 rupees per hour. Additionally, I worked 16 hours without any pay when I was promoted to manager. This practice still persists in both startups and multinational companies.

[@SAHA-re2to]

Great program. The government should take a step to put a cap on working hours. If these corporate owners want more working hours let them hire more employees who can work on a Sunday and take a day off during the week. Government should force these large corporations to hire more people to reduce unemployment. But this government is busy in other kind of politics.
