Activists are calling for more supervision over labor exploitation in an online crusade spearheaded by software developers against the so-called 996 work schedule, which is widely practiced in China's tech industry. 不久前，软件程序员们在网上掀起了一个反对996工作制的活动，一些活动人士呼吁对劳动剥削行为进行更强有力的监管。中国的科技公司普遍采用996工作制。 The rules-which require employees to work from 9 am to 9 pm, six days a week without overtime pay-came under fire after a programmer created 996.ICU, a page on code-sharing platform GitHub.com. The page garnered immediate attention at home and abroad. 996工作制指的是员工从早上9点工作到晚上9点，每周工作6天，且没有加班费。一位程序员在代码分享平台GitHub网站上创建了996.ICU主页，这种工作制立即遭到抨击，并引发了国内外广泛关注。 The name 996.ICU refers to a saying among Chinese developers that following the 996 schedule puts you at risk of ending up in an intensive care unit. 在中国996工作制的程序员中流传着一句话：工作996生病ICU，996.ICU这一主页的名称由此而来。 In the weeks that followed the creation of 996.ICU in March, the page has accrued almost 200,000 stars-which indicates popularity among users. 3月份，在996.ICU主页创建后的几周内，星数就已超20万，星数代表该主页在使用者中的受欢迎程度。 |
