In addition to the National Day holiday, there are actually 5 weeks of extra time off

It's a rhythm that makes people forget ↓↓↓

■ Some netizens said that this kind of extra time off is very tiring, and it is better not to take extra time off.

■ Some netizens calculated the number of days and said that they actually worked for 21 days.

It is recommended to improve the "make-up vacation" model of paid leave.

Peng Han, chief analyst of Global Travel News, said in an interview that from the level of public opinion, it can be seen that the public currently has great opinions on the "make-up leave" model of paid leave and hopes that the policy will be implemented. The call for adjustments is very high. The root cause is that the "leave together" model of adjusting leave does not increase the total number of holidays for everyone. It is just demolishing the east wall to make up for the west wall, so that after enjoying the holidays, the public must "pay off the debt" and make up for the owed working days. superior.

The direction of this model is obvious. It is not to allow the public to truly "rest", but to concentrate on holidays and facilitate the consumption economy. So the public has a lot of opinions on this, and it's easy to understand.

In fact, judging from the public holidays in various countries around the world, China has quite a few holidays. Excluding days off, China’s public holidays include: 1 day for New Year’s Day (January 1st), 3 days for Spring Festival (1st to 3rd day of the first lunar month), 1 day for Tomb-Sweeping Day (the day of Qingming in the lunar calendar), and 1 day for Labor Day (May 1st), 1 day of Dragon Boat Festival (the fifth day of the fifth lunar month), 1 day of the Mid-Autumn Festival (the 15th day of the eighth lunar month), and 3 days of National Day (October 1st to 3rd), a total of 11 days, similar to most European and American countries Basically the same. However, after including employees’ paid holidays, the total number of holidays that Chinese employees have throughout the year is less than that of most countries in the world.

Cheng Chaogong, chief researcher of Tongcheng Research Institute, said that from the comparison of demand and supply, we can see that the current statutory holiday arrangement does have room for improvement in the time pattern, especially in the second half of the year. There are too few statutory holidays and the connection between holidays is relatively small. Poor, the distribution is not reasonable enough.

Cheng Chaogong pointed out that increasing statutory holidays, especially the holidays in the second half of the year, can be explored from two dimensions ↓↓↓

■ One is that those who do not take holidays before traditional holidays (including important historical anniversaries) can consider taking holidays (such as Double Ninth Festival, Double Ninth Festival, Winter Solstice, Laba Festival, etc.);

■ Another is that special holidays can be added for peak tourism consumption seasons such as summer.Is
