People from all over the world are struggling with obesity. The same situation is in India. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had to appeal to the ramparts of the Red Fort to reduce obesity. Considering obesity as a problem, a Chinese tech company has announced a bonus of one million yuan (about Rs 1.24 crore) for losing weight to its employees. The company has also built a bonus pool for this. This initiative of the Chinese tech company has been a matter of considerable discussion on social media.
Shenzhen -based Arshi Vision Inc., known as Insta 360, has initiated the initiative with ‘Million Yuan Wet Loss Challenge’ to motivate more and more employees to adopt healthy lifestyle. This company is known for making cameras and action gears.
The rules for participating in this challenge are very simple. Any employee who wants to participate in this competition can register. He will get 500 yuan (about 6200 rupees) for reducing every half kg weight.
What are the conditions of the company?
Interestingly, if the weight of the contestant participating in this competition increases again, the company will impose a fine of more than one and a half times 800 yuan (about Rs 9,920).
Do not understand that we explain to you-
If a participant loses half a kilo of weight, he will get 1000 yuan (about 12,400 rupees). If the participant’s weight increases by one kg, then he will have to pay a fine of 1600 yuan (about Rs 19,841). However, no employee has paid the fine yet.
Jane-G employee won 20 thousand yuan
The Chinese tech company has been running ‘Million Yuan Wet Loss Challenge’ for the last several years. This year, the special thing is that Jen-G employee, Ji Yaki, participated in it and reduced 20 kg weight in just 90 days. For this, the company has given Zee Yaki the title of ‘Weight Los Champion’. Besides, 20 thousand yuan (about Rs 2.48 lakh) cash has also been given.
Zee Yaki said that he took a lot of discipline during the ‘Million Yuan Weight Loss Challenge’ to reduce 20 kg in 90 days. Exercised one and a half hours daily. Take a controlled diet. I believe this is the best challenge of my life, in which I can make myself the best. This challenge is not about beauty, but about health awareness.
Regarding ‘Million Yuan Wet Los Challenge’, a spokesperson of the company said that through this challenge, our aim is to promote a healthy lifestyle and encourage our employees to focus on health other than work. Employees are enthusiastically participating in this initiative and the work environment is quite positive.
Some social media users have appreciated the employees of the company for spreading health awareness in a creative way, while some have questioned the fine for increasing weight.
