    My gosh. They don’t even get to sit. And the neck pain I would have after 10–12 hours of this shit.

      That’s just regular assembly line work. They don’t let you sit here either. I’m sure conditions are better here but it’s a shit job that treats you like dirt no matter where you do it.

        Where exactly is “here” for you?

        I’m sure this is not the case in every country.

          Probably USA.

          Never seen a chair in an assembly line section except for an occasional desk.

          Actually tbh I think the chair aspect is the least concerning. Chair vs standing is usually based on the task required, where chair is only provided as a necessity like work that requires higher precision or a certain type of dexterity.

          Would probably see chairs for something like component soldering or sewing.

          Otherwise they could easily fashion all those workers with a cheap plastic chair in the picture since they clearly spent the money on proper attire and health standards.

          Looks like seafood processing, which I’ve never seen a chef or cook do sitting lol. Have seen squatting but I don’t think that counts.

            It’s good not be sedentary for the majority of the day obviously, but it’s nice to offload your feet at some intervals if you’re not varying the load on the foot and legs. Standing still for hours is torture.
