A complete disregard for worker safety and welfare make China a safe guess. I wonder if they do the 996 system in their heavy industry factories too.

I wouldn't doubt it. Workers are replaceable there. The changes I saw from the older steel plants to the newer ones were insane and was billions spent on worker safety and automation. The older plants were still active when I saw the new one built. Had to wear a respirator and a hard hat at the old ones, many workers didn't. Dirtiest places on earth. Newer ones just a hard hat because of OSHA, even tho you couldn't possibly get hit.
