Chinanews, Shanghai, Mar1. 12 – What are some of the things that white collars in Shanghai hate to do most? According to a recent survey from zhaopin.com, Shanghai white collars are unwilling2 to take business trips most. Due to frequent trips, they have an irregular life and they can’t spend much time with their families, many women white collars complain, the Shanghai-based Youth Daily reported.

 

In addition, many white collars also raise the baby issue. “I like children very much. However, in order to keep my present job, I have to persuade my husband that we will have a baby at a later time,” they say.

 

The survey shows that the top ten troubles that Shanghai white collars pick are: frequent travels; sexual harassment3 from male bosses; dining with male customers; fussy4 female bosses; sexual discrimination; family members’ complaints about not giving birth to a baby; walking home at night alone; unable to give birth to a baby due to busy work schedule; working overtime5 frequently; and possibility of losing their jobs from childbirth.

 

Two of the ten troubles are related with sexual harassment both from male customers and male bosses. In fact, many female white collars are victims of sexual harassment. However, in order to keep their present jobs, they choose to tolerate it.
