Workplace Labor Management Discussion
I absolutely cannot put up with this.
He says this is intolerable.
Please speak.
If you speak, I will translate for you.
These men work too slowly.
At this rate,
we will never meet the deadline.
The foreman says every day at least one worker
doesn't show up because he is sick.
Now, how ridiculous is that?
Interpret.
The Korean workers' hours are too long,
and they are falling ill one by one.
In order to meet the completion deadline,
if we push them too hard,
it will ultimately result in losses,
so he wants you to adjust their hours
and guarantee them adequate rest.
That's what he says.
How many hours a day are they working now?
For three months,
fourteen hours every day without a day off.
Reduce their hours by one hour every other day.
However,
if the construction cannot be completed on time,
I will definitely hold these men
accountable.
Yes.
We will manage workers better.
Please do not worry.
Thank you.
Well then,
let's go.
Interpreter Sato.
Right.
Did you interpret properly today?
Why do you think I didn't?
Fine, I trust you.
Ah,
Tell them to increase the laborers' working hours by one hour every day.
Father.
Why should we take the Koreans' circumstances into account?
Tell them to finish it no matter what.
This is an order.
Interpreter Sato.
