Following the 996 work schedule promoted by Jack Ma, a new extreme labor system called '896' has emerged in mainland China, demanding employees to work from 8AM to 9PM for six days a week at Chinese tech giant CATL, a key player in the electric vehicle industry. This system caused outrage among netizens as the company aims to accelerate business operations and achieve targets at the expense of overworked employees. Exemptions for foreign employees further sparked criticism of unfair treatment, with many Chinese internet users condemning the company's disregard for local labor laws and welfare.
