According to the explanation given by the company to the bereaved family based on external investigations, the man was often reprimanded by his boss, and the day before his death, his boss said, "How much do you lie. I can't work with you." He was standing in front of his desk at work for more than 40 minutes.
The man also told his wife, "I have too much work to do."
The company acknowledged that there was power harassment from its boss and apologized to the bereaved family for what seemed to be one of the causes of suicide.
The man's wife said, "I never dreamed that my husband, who said he was so cheerful and enjoyable at work, would never be like this. Never let this happen again so that this will never happen again. I want it. "
