Mumbai Company Sparks Outrage with 'No Personal Life' Job Demand"😤
A recent job posting is sparking outrage for its bizarre requirement: a "personal life should be sorted with no baggage." This translates to - we expect you to devote yourself entirely to work, with no personal commitments getting in the way. This comes at a time when Indian workers are demanding better work-life balance, especially after the tragic death of a young employee allegedly due to overwork. Is this the future of work? Even after Ernst & Young incident?🤷‍♂️

Employers need to be legally forced to treat employees with basic respect. They won't do it on their own.

See if personal life is not "sorted", then the employee would have to waste time in their 168 hours sorting all of that. Instead, if they would give 140 of those hours towards the progress and development of the mighty company, the shareholders might be able to receive a 1 usd dividend, and the execs would be able to receive yachts for their hard work and tireless effort of managing/overloading slaves setting targets throughout the year.

That's the thing, these companies don't think of employees as humans, instead, they are just mere numbers and equipment for them. So that's why they are listing it upfront. A person might think of it as a job, they think of that person as a temporary equipment rental that they must squeeze the maximum possible resources out of, for the sake of the top exec's yearly bonus.

It's concerning to see companies still prioritizing work over employee well-being. I think the government should intervene to protect the rights of the corporate workers its high time now.
