FOR A LONG TIME NOW, JAPAN HAS BEEN STRUGGLING WITH AN AGING
POPULATION, BECAUSE YOUNG PEOPLE ARE NO LONGER INTERESTED IN
GETTING MARRIED AND HAVING KIDS.
ONE REASON FOR THAT IS BECAUSE OF HOW MUCH THESE YOUNG
PEOPLE IN JAPAN ARE WORKING RIGHT NOW.
IN FACT, IT'S GOTTEN SO BAD THAT IN 2015, THE NUMBER OF BIRTHS
DIDN'T EVEN REACH 1 MILLION.
THAT IS THE LOWEST BIRTHRATE IN JAPAN PRETTY MUCH SINCE THEY
STARTED KEEPING TRACK OF BIRTHS IN 1899, SO IT'S INSANE.
WHAT OFFICIALS HAVE REALIZED IS, OKAY WE NEED TO ENCOURAGE
YOUNG PEOPLE TO MAYBE NOT WORK AS MUCH, SO THEY CAN SPEND SOME
TIME MAYBE HAVING KIDS, MAYBE ESTABLISHING A RELATIONSHIP.
HERE ARE SOME OF THEIR SUGGESTIONS (THIS IS INSANE):
ONE SUGGESTION IS PREMIUM FRIDAY, WHICH WILL
ENCOURAGE COMPANIES TO LET WORKERS LEAVE EARLY ON THE
LAST FRIDAY OF THE MONTH.
THE PRIME MINISTER IS ALSO PUSHING A MEASURE TO Overtime,
WHICH HE SAYS HE'LL ENFORCE WITH RANDOM INSPECTIONS.
THE SECOND PART ABOUT CAPPING OVERTIME IS THE MOST IMPORTANT
PART, BUT LETTING PEOPLE LEAVE EARLY ON THE LAST FRIDAY OF
EVERY MONTH IS NOT ENOUGH TIME FOR PEOPLE TO, YOU KNOW, KNOCK
BOOTS, AND DO EVERYTHING NECESSARY TO TAKE CARE OF
THAT COMPONENT OF YOUR LIFE.
IT'S NOT GOING TO HAVE A LARGE ENOUGH IMPACT ON THE CULTURE.
THE CULTURE IS WORK THEMSELVES TO DEATH.
LITERALLY.
ANA IS GOING TO HAVE SOME STORIES ON THAT IN A 2ND.
IF YOU ARE GOING TO SAY THAT CULTURE, HEY LET'S TWEAK IT, SO
THAT INSTEAD OF WORKING YOURSELF TO DEATH EVERY SINGLE DAY OF THE
WEEK, WE'LL GIVE YOU ONE DAY OF THE MONTH WHERE YOU KIND OF HALF
WORK.
MAN, YOU ARE REALLY CHIPPING AWAY AT THE PROBLEM.
I'M AMUSED THAT THE JAPANESE GOVERNMENT IS OBSESSED WITH
PROMOTING SEX IN JAPAN, AND THAT THEY ARE FAILING.
WITH GOOD REASON THOUGH, THINK ABOUT IT, FIRST OF ALL,
ELDERLY PEOPLE IN JAPAN ARE FREAKING OUT.
IF YOU HAVE A SMALLER DIVISION OF YOUNG PEOPLE, WHO IS
GOING TO PAY FOR THE OLD PEOPLE?
WERE TAKE CARE OF THE OLDER PEOPLE?
SO YEAH, PEOPLE ARE REALLY WORRIED ABOUT THIS, BECAUSE
THE ECONOMY IS GOING TO EXPERIENCE SOME ISSUES;
THEIR SOCIAL SAFETY PROGRAMS ARE GOING TO BE SCREENS ISSUES;
YOU OBVIOUSLY NEED SOME YOUNG PEOPLE IN THE POPULATION.
THAT SOUNDS LIKE A FAMILIAR PROBLEM.
I KNOW WE MIGHT BE HAVING A PROBLEM WITH SOCIAL SECURITY
HERE IN THE U.S.
FOR DIFFERENT REASONS, BUT BIRTHRATE IN THE U.S.
HAS ALSO DROPPED.
AMERICANS, WE ARE STILL HAVING SEX, YEAH!
BUT LOOK, THERE'S A LOT OF CULTURAL REASONS, WE'VE DONE A
LOT OF STORIES ABOUT THE LACK OF SEX IN JAPAN, BECAUSE IT'S
VERY INTERESTING.
PART OF IT IS THE INTERNET, PORN, PEOPLE HAVE BECOME SO
OBSESSED WITH GAMING SO THEY'RE SPENDING A LOT OF TIME GAMING.
PEOPLE ARE OBSESSED WITH PORN AND THEY ARE LIKE, WHY
SHOULD I GO BOTHER WITH A GIRL WHO WILL SAY NO WHEN I CAN
GET MY EXACT PARTICULAR NICHE ONLINE?
SO IT'S NOT JUST THE WORK, BUT IT DOESN'T HELP THAT YOU GOT NO
TIME AT ALL, BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE SPENDING 100 ñ 200 HOURS ON
OVERTIME ALONE, LET ALONE THE NORMAL WORK SCHEDULE.
AND IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT BIRTH, BUT ALSO ABOUT DEATH.
WE DID A REPORT ABOUT THIS ON SCIQ, THAT A LOT OF THE
TIME, OUR JOBS ARE ACTUALLY KILLING US; THE AMOUNT OF
TIME WE SPENT SITTING DOWN, AND SPEND IT POORLY VENTILATED
ROOMS, AND IN THE DARK, ACTUALLY SAVES THREE YEARS OFF OUR
LIFE, JUST FROM WORKING TOO MUCH.
AND THAT'S ABOUT THE SAME AMOUNT THAT SMOKING WIPES OUT, SO
IF YOU THINK YOU ARE TOO HEALTHY TO SMOKE, BUT YOU WORK A
LOT OF OVERTIME AND STRESS OUT ABOUT YOUR JOB, YOUR JOB
MIGHT BE LITERALLY KILLING YOU.
AS WE SIT IN A POORLY VENTILATED ROOM, IN THE DARK, RIGHT
NOW, FOR ABOUT THREE HOURS DOING A SHOW.
EXACTLY.
ONE THING TO KEEP IN MIND IS THAT OVERTIME IS A PROBLEM,
SO THERE ARE SOME COMPANIES THAT HAVE TAKEN MATTERS INTO
THEIR OWN HANDS.
I LOVE THIS IDEA.
JAPAN POST INSURANCE HAS COME UP WITH A CLEVER SOLUTION OF
TURNING OFF THE LIGHTS IN HIS HEADQUARTERS AT 3 PM, FORCING
WORKERS TO GO HOME WERE AT LEAST ñ WORLDS WORK IN THE DARK.
ñ OR ELSE WORK IN THE DARK.
I LIKE THAT IDEA, BUT PEOPLE ARE ALSO COMMITTING SUICIDE.
WORK-RELATED SUICIDES HAVE RAISED 45% OR LESS ñ IN THE LAST
FOUR YEARS, AND WHEN IT COMES TO WOMEN SPECIFICALLY, INCREASED
39%.
THIS STORY WAS IN THE WASHINGTON POST, AND I'VE SEEN IT
ELSEWHERE.
THEY TALK ABOUT WOMEN WHO COMMIT SUICIDE.
THIS ONE WOMAN PUT IN OVER 100 HOURS OF OVERTIME.
THAT'S OVERTIME, 100 HOURS.
SHE WAS 24 YEARS OLD.
PART OF THE CHANGE OF CULTURE IS THAT YOU'VE GOT TO GIVE OPTIONS,
NOT JUST, EITHER YOU WORK 100 HOURS OF OVERTIME WORKING
YOURSELF.
THERE'S ANOTHER OPTION OUT THERE, WHERE YOU WORK MAYBE
NORMAL HOURS, OR MAYBE JUST 20
HOURS OF OVERTIME, AND THEN GO HAVE A PICNIC.
THAT OPTION IS NOT SO BAD.
OR, MAYBE HAVE A PICNIC WITH A GUY AND HAVE SOME FUN.
THE THIRD OPTION IS MUCH BETTER THAN THE OTHER TWO OPTIONS.
BUT I'VE READ OTHER STORIES THROUGHOUT THE YEARS.
IT'S NOT JUST THE GUYS AND GIRLS WHO ARE COMMITTING SUICIDE
FROM WORKING SO HARD, AND ALL THE EXPECATIONS THAT COME WITH
IT, IT IS ALSO PEOPLE SOMETIMES LITERALLY DYING ON THE JOB.
YES, THAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING.
HERE'S WHAT I DON'T GET, WHY AREN'T COMPANIES DOING
SOMETHING ABOUT THIS?
I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND THAT YOU WANT TO GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR
EMPLOYEES, AND IT SEEMS LIKE HAVING THEIR ñ HAVING THEM THERE
WORKING MORE OVERTIME IS GETTING THE MOST, BUT THIS HAS LED TO
HUGE PROBLEMS OF PRESANTEEISM.
HERE IN THE U.S IT'S A BIG PROBLEM, AS OPPOSED TO
ABSENTEEISM.
LIKE SHOWING UP TO WORK SICK.
YOU COME TO WORK AND HE SPREAD
THE VIRUS BECAUSE YOU WANT TO BE
A WORK MARTYR.
THIS WHOLE VIDEO IS DIRECTED AT ME.
WE COLLUDED EARLIER.
TOTALLY GILDED AS CHARGED OF COMING TO WORK SICK ALL THE
TIME.
LET'S FIND SOME BALANCE.
I LIKE PEOPLE THAT WORK HARD.
IF I HAD THE PEOPLE DYING AT WORK, I MIGHT RECONSIDER.
JAPAN HAS GOT SOME TWEAKING OF THE CULTURE, TO SAY
THE LEAST.
