1/20 f/5.0, ISO 500,

In Giappone esiste una cosa ben definita che si chiama “morte per troppo lavoro” (karoshi), che rientra ufficialmente nelle statistiche delle cause di morte. Esistono degli studi al riguardo che ne esaminano le ragioni, che possono dipendere da troppe ore di lavoro, troppo pochi riposi settimanali, troppi straordinari anche a casa, oppure eccessive pressioni sul luogo di lavoro, tutti elementi che possono portare a gravi disturbi tra i quali anche attacchi di cuore. E' un problema cronico, noto fin dagli anni 80, che non si è mai riusciti a risolvere, sostanzialmente perché non vengono imposte significative sanzioni alle aziende che fanno lavorare troppo i loro dipendenti, oppure perché non vengono applicati dei tetti massimi alle ore straordinarie. Le uniche iniziative prese in maniera velleitaria da singole aziende sono l'introduzione dell'usanza di chiudere prima gli uffici in certi giorni (i cosiddetti “go home early days”), oppure lo spegnimento delle luci alle 22.

I like the low point of the shot, the colors, the moving background (waist x others), the three-dimensionality and the fact that the spotlight has been turned on this theme.
The awareness that the number of working hours and deaths related to this rhythm is gradually growing, but despite this there are also legislative contradictions. :-/ (IMHO)
Hello, Lauro
