Introduction

A company’s leave policy significantly impacts employee satisfaction, productivity, and overall morale. Unfortunately, some organisations in China have implemented rigid leave policies, leading to widespread employee dissatisfaction. This article explores the impact of such policies, citing real-world examples and their implications for employees and organisations.

The 996 Work Culture

A prominent example is the “996” work schedule, where employees work from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six days a week. This demanding schedule leaves minimal room for personal time or rest, exacerbating issues related to restrictive leave policies. The BBC highlights how this culture has been widely criticised for its detrimental effects on workers’ health and well-being.


Strict Regulations on Sick Leave

Employees in certain Chinese companies report that organisations require exhaustive medical documentation for even short-term sick leave. This discourages individuals from prioritising their health. This is supported by analysis on DWT, which discusses employer obligations under strict labour regulations in China.


Public Shaming for Absence

In some cases, employees have faced public reprimand or financial penalties for taking leave. Such practices foster a toxic workplace environment, as noted in a detailed study on KWM. These policies often lead to stress, anxiety, and a significant decline in job satisfaction.


Impact on Employees

  1. Increased Burnout
    Extended working hours and limited leave options contribute to severe mental and physical exhaustion among employees.
  2. Decreased Job Satisfaction
    A lack of flexibility and punitive leave policies lower employee morale and loyalty.
  3. Stifled Creativity and Productivity
    Insufficient rest and an overworked environment result in reduced innovation and decreased efficiency.

According to a report by China Labour Bulletin, such practices often result in decreased workplace harmony and productivity.


Impact on Companies

  1. High Employee Turnover
    Dissatisfied employees are more likely to leave, increasing recruitment and training costs for companies.
  2. Negative Reputation
    Organisations with rigid leave policies struggle to attract top talent due to their reputation as unsupportive workplaces.
  3. Reduced Performance
    A disengaged and overworked workforce leads to lower overall productivity, as noted in the Harvard Business Review.

Recommendations for Better Leave Policies

To foster a healthier work environment, companies should consider:

  1. Flexibility
    Introducing flexible leave options, such as mental health days, to accommodate diverse employee needs.
  2. Transparent Processes
    Streamlining leave application procedures to reduce bureaucracy and frustration.
  3. Encouraging Work-Life Balance
    Promoting a culture that values rest and recovery, ensuring employees feel supported in taking necessary leave.
  4. Compliance with Labour Laws
    Ensuring leave policies align with national labour laws and provide fair compensation for overtime or unpaid leave.

Conclusion

Overly restrictive leave policies not only harm employees but also negatively impact organisational performance. By adopting flexible and supportive leave practices, organisations can enhance employee satisfaction, reduce turnover, and improve overall productivity.
