996 working hour system

The 996 working hour system is a kind of work schedule where people work from 9am to 9pm, 6 days a week. It means that people have to work for 12 hours each day and a lot of people have to work many hours and don't have enough time for their family and friends or to do things they like. It's not a healthy way of working and can cause people to get tired and stressed.
