Millions of people online decry ‘heartless’ employer over death of ‘model’ employee who was loved by community in which he worked
The employer of an early-arriving security guard in China who died in a sweltering workplace without air conditioning has refused to recognise his demise as work-related.
The firm has also declined to pay the man’s family compensation, sparking widespread outrage online.
The 50-year-old man, surnamed Zhou, worked the early shift at a residential community in Xi’an, Shaanxi province, northeastern China, Jimu News reported.
On July 15, he arrived at work an hour early, at around 7.00am.
