A Chinese tech worker died after overwork; family says he was assigned tasks even in ICU, sparking national debate on labor rights.
A 32-year-old Chinese software developer, Gao Guanghui, died in November 2025 after collapsing at home while working.
His family alleges he was overworked, earning a low base salary with high performance incentives, and was added to a work chat group while in critical condition in the ICU, receiving task requests even after his death.
His wife said the company processed his resignation and cleared his office posthumously.
The case has sparked national debate over extreme work demands and labor rights in China’s tech sector, with the company seeking work-related injury recognition, a process still pending.
