Interesting Chinese HR Policies
Here is a sample of some federally mandated leave entitlements for workers in China. They obviously want to promote smaller families:
- 3 days for marriage. An additional 7 consecutive days for what is considered a "late" marraige (25 for men, 23 for women).
- 90 days for maternity leave. An additional 30 days if the woman is more than 24 years old.
- 30 days for first trimester abortions!?!?!
- 45 days for second or third trimester abortions!?!?!?
