Leaving Work on Time is 'Lack of Heat': Government Designates Humans as Renewable Energy, Karoshi Becomes 'Honorable Complete Combustion'
Preparing for the depletion of fossil fuels, the government officially recognized the 'guts' and 'labor heat' of the people as a new energy source on the 11th. Along with this, a combustion rank such as 'burnable waste' has been added to the insurance card classification of the My Number Card, and high-calorie corporate slaves are prioritized for assignment to thermal power plants. While an environmental tax is imposed on 'leaving work on time' as 'incomplete combustion', those who collapse from overwork are disposed of as 'cinders' (industrial waste), and bereaved families are granted a large amount of environmental protection points.
