下班還不走？首爾市政府將強制關機大綱
The government in South Korea's capital is introducing a new initiative to force its employees to leave work on time - by powering down all their computers at 20:00 on Fridays.
韓國首爾市政府將實行新舉措，每週五晚8點切斷辦公電腦的電源，強制政府工作人員按時下班。
It says it is trying to stop a "culture of working overtime".
首爾市政府表示，要設法摒棄“加班文化”。
South Korea has some of the longest working hours in the world.
韓國上班族的工作時間全球最長。
Government employees there work an average of 2,739 hours a year - about 1,000 hours more than workers in other developed countries.

The shutdown initiative in the Seoul Metropolitan Government is set to roll out across three phases over the next three months.
首爾大都市區政府的這項關機計劃將在未來三個月內分三步推廣。
The programme will begin on March 30, with all computers switched off by 20:00.
該計劃將於3月30日起開始實施，所有辦公電腦將在週五晚8點被切斷電源。

According to a SMG statement, all employees will be subjected to the shutdown, though exemptions may be provided in special circumstances.
根據首爾大都市區政府的聲明，所有職員都要遵守規定，但特殊情況下可有例外。
However, not every government worker seems to be on-board - according to the SMG, 67.1% of government workers have asked to be exempt from the forced lights-out.
但並非所有的政府工作人員都想要照辦。首爾大都市區政府稱，67.1%的政府工作人員已要求不受強制關機的限制。
Earlier this month, South Korea's national assembly passed a law to cut down the maximum weekly working hours to 52, down from 68.
本月早些時候，韓國國民議會通過了一項法律，將每週最長工作時間從68小時降低到52小時。
