Although countries with long average working hours are economically successful, on the other hand, some negative social consequences. I agree with the given statement. Long working hours are beneficial for country economy but people health and social life are affected in many ways.
Although long average working hours mean country economic success. Because people work in 48 hours per week is the big boost country’s wealth compared to other countries. Basically, employer tey to convince employees to long working hours for benefit for the company. Not only employers but also govt. Force to employees work more and more.
Despite all kind of benefits, there are some disadvantages for long working hours, employees health at risk is the main problem. Because long working hours get stuck in work and don’t relex in proper way. In the long term people suffering some dangerous illness like diabetes, high blood sugar, heart attack etc. In some cases mental problems are affected for worker. In the primary level doesn’t affect much but in the long term this things is the most dangerous for people.
Another problem for long working hours, they didn’t much time for family and friends. There social life is completely fragile for this long working hours. People are frustrated for the work and quit their jobs.
In conclusion, I believe that the advantage of long average working time is short-term, In the long term ther are lots of disadvantages to this. Governments and companies should step to limite there working time.
