What will happen, if workers / employees start working for 90 hours per week?

Last week, S.N.Subramanian, the chairman of  L&T, told that, workers / employees should work for 90 hours per week. To drive home his point, S.N.Subramanian asked workers, "How long can you stare at your wife at home?" S.N.Subramanian has given this proposal only to multiply the profit of big corporates of this country, like the L&T.  But, what will happen to the workers / employees who work for 90 hours per week? They will certainly become physically and mentally ill. Many workers/ employees may have to go to the mental hospital. It is what this cartoon says. According to this cartoon, a worker who worked for 90 hours, became mentally ill and went to meet the psychiatrist. The beauty is that, together with this  worker, another man is also waiting to meet the psychiatrist. He is none other than S.N.Subramanian, L&T chairman. This cartoon clearly gives the message. Ordinary worker, or top ranking boss, everyone will become mental patients, if they work for long  hours, like 90 hours for week. Excellent cartoon.
