When it comes to some of the most toxic work cultures in the world, the first name of only one country comes to mind and that is China. Here, not only are there professional pressure on people, but they are also fired from work for small mistakes. Many times, the behavior of managers is such that it becomes unbearable for the employees.
This case is from the neighboring country of China, where an employee slept for some time in his office. Instead, when the company fired him, he took such revenge that the company had to pay a compensation of Rs 40 lakh. This entire incident is going viral on social media and people are also giving their reactions regarding it.
fired from job for taking a nap
According to the report of South China Morning Post, this incident happened with a person named Zhang, resident of Jiangsu Province. Zhang worked as a manager in a department store. During his twenty years of service, Zhang gave his best services here. Earlier this year, Zhang was caught sleeping in the middle of the night on a store camera. Responding to the matter, HR fired Zhang for ‘sleeping at the workplace due to fatigue’. He cited breach of company discipline as the reason behind this.
Taught a lesson by going to court
Zhang did not find it right to be fired from his job in this manner, so he reached the court. While giving the verdict in the case, the judge said – ‘Sleeping while on the job is a first time offense and it has not caused any serious loss to the company.’ An employee who has been serving you for 20 years cannot be fired for such a reason. Not only this, the court has ordered the company to pay a compensation of Rs 40 lakh to Zhang.
