Sports activities among employees of industrial and commercial enterprises, institutions and organizations are used to improve the health level of employees and encourage them to work and produce more actively. Socialist countries care about workers' health and organize and lead workers' sports activities. In capitalist society, some capitalists attach importance to staff sports in order to get more profits.
In carrying out staff sports, many production models and advanced figures have played an exemplary role and actively participated in exercise. In 1950s, Wang Chonglun, a well-known national model worker and Angang worker, was praised by the masses as "a man ahead of the times". When I participated in the 1 workers' sports meeting, I finished fifth in the 200-meter hurdles. Hou Zhanyou, an old miner in Kailuan Coal Mine and a representative of the Fifth National People's Congress, took an active part in physical exercise and won the middleweight wrestling championship in Hebei Province. Li, a worker of Xiangjiang Machinery Factory in Zhuzhou, Hunan Province, is a national model worker and a deputy to the Fifth National People's Congress. He has been running for more than 30 years, entered the factory for more than 20 years, and completed his work for more than 50 years.
