Just now, the National Development and Reform Commission forwarded several Weibo posts authoritatively analyzing the highlights of vacation arrangements.
Five highlights of vacation arrangements in 2024
This vacation arrangement mainly presents five major highlights:
Highlight 1: 9 days, the longest National Day holiday in history
On New Year's Day in 2024, there will be at least 8 days of vacation, starting from the second day of the Lunar New Year to the ninth day of the Lunar New Year. If you cooperate with the paid holidays, you can take 9 days of vacation, which can be said to be the first big gift package of Christmas. Even though there is no nominal holiday on the Spring Festival, all units and institutions are encouraged to make flexible arrangements according to actual conditions. At the same time, the expressway has already been free of charge, which essentially creates conditions for the people to have three more days off. The extension of the National Day holiday can satisfy the general public's desire to have more time to reunite with their elders, and can also achieve the small goal of reuniting first and traveling later on the weekend. This is an innovative and heart-warming move based on the provisions of the National Holidays and Memorial Days Holiday Regulations, which fully demonstrates the good intentions and careful design of the new policy makers.
Highlight 2: It has to be adjusted, but it is more user-friendly and flexible.
Vacation is a topic of general concern to the public in vacation arrangements. The current public opinions on whether to take a vacation and how to take a vacation vary greatly. Generally speaking, taking a vacation is better than not taking a vacation, and it has to be adjusted. Since among the 7 statutory holidays, New Year, Dragon Boat Festival and Double Ninth Festival are determined according to the lunar calendar , National Day, Labor Day and Mid-Autumn Festival are determined according to the lunar calendar, and the Dragon Boat Festival is determined according to the solar terms. It is not consistent with the weekends in the lunar calendar. If there are no holidays, there will basically be one working day between some holidays and weekends every year, resulting in the "fragmentation" of holidays, etc., resulting in a lot of "single jumps", then It's not "I'm tired but I don't love you", it's "I'm tired and I don't love you". Holidays are effective new policy arrangements made to prevent the "fragmentation" of holidays on the premise that the total number of holidays is fixed. Through holidays in 2024, a "9573" holiday schedule has been created, highlighting strong humanization and flexibility.
Highlight 3: Minimal intervention, try not to disrupt people’s normal life rhythm
Weekends will be relatively balanced throughout the year in 2024. By reassigning them close to the holidays, the holidays will be at least 8 days, National Day will be 7 days, Labor Day will be 5 days, New Year, Tomb Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival, and Mid-Autumn Festival will all be 3 days, and the longest working day after the holidays will be only 6 days. , the adjustment range is relatively small, preventing long working hours after holidays, and better meeting people's actual needs for a balance between work and rest.
Highlight 4: Combining long and short periods to better meet people’s travel requirements and holiday expectations
China's statutory holidays have the characteristics of a time distribution of "more in the first half of the year and less in the second half of the year", and "shorter in the first half of the year and longer in the second half". In the 2024 National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holiday schedule , five holidays are concentrated in the first half of the year. This vacation arrangement fully takes into account the date characteristics of this legal holiday, resulting in a weekend distribution of four 3-day short holidays, one 5-day small holiday, one 7-day long holiday, and one 9-day super holiday, which better realizes the holiday. A situation that is intertwined with short vacations. Through a reasonable combination of holidays and short vacations, people can make travel plans and arrangements for the whole year in advance, have more and better date choices for family visits, leisure, travel, etc., and prevent "swarm" travel and "gathering" travel.
Highlight 5: Encourage the implementation of paid annual holidays to better protect people’s rest rights
In the document issued by the State Council, it was proposed for the first time to encourage the implementation of systems such as paid annual leave. In essence, it encourages enterprises and institutions to give whatever they can on the premise of ensuring basic operations. China's current total number of legal holidays is 11 days, 104 days of holiday rest, and 5-15 days of paid leave. The 2024 National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holiday schedule has been adjusted . The total number of summer vacation days is at an above-average level internationally. The reason why you always think that there are not enough weekends and a weak sense of gain is mainly because the paid annual leave system is not implemented in place. You cannot blame the statutory holiday arrangements and holidays. This leave arrangement is a particularly ingenious exploration by encouraging employers to include Spring Festival leave in the paid annual leave arrangement. Relatively speaking, the summer vacation of paid annual vacation is longer and the arrangement is more flexible, which is more suitable for people's objective needs of staggered travel and scattered arrangements. Only by coordinating and arranging paid annual leave and legal holidays, workers' right to rest will be more secure and fully protected.
It’s hard to adjust the annual holiday schedule, so why do you still have to “adjust” it?
New Year's Day in 2024 will be a holiday from February 10th (the second day of the lunar month) to the 17th (the twelfth lunar month). At the same time, "all units are encouraged to implement systems such as paid annual leave and arrange for employees to take a break during the Spring Festival (February 9th)." The "longest vacation in history" occurred, but the Spring Festival was not included in the holiday schedule, which inevitably caused criticism. The author sorted out 4 questions:
1. What is the basis for holiday arrangements? According to the "National Festival and Memorial Day Holiday Measures" revised in 2013, my country currently has 7 Spring Festival holidays for all citizens, with a total of 11 days of holiday. Among them, there are 3 days of holidays (the second, second and third day of February in the lunar calendar), three days of Dragon Boat Festival (October 1, 2 and 3), one each for Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, Labor Day, Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival. sky.
2. Why take a holiday? Most of the holidays in our country follow the traditional lunar calendar, except that the corresponding lunar calendar dates change every year, and they are not consistent with the weekends of the lunar calendar. If personal leave is not taken, there will basically be a working day gap between some holidays and weekends every year, resulting in "fragmentation" of holidays.
3. Why is New Year’s Day so special this year? Last year’s Spring Festival (February 9, 2024) fell on a Sunday. On the basis of strictly implementing the three-day New Year’s weekend, different vacation plans can be generated by transferring the preceding and following weekends. Taking the form of transferring the previous Friday (February 4th) and the following weekend (February 18th) as an example, two leave plans will be generated.
If the weekend starts on the Spring Festival, the holiday period is from February 9th (Spring Festival) to February 15th (Twelfth lunar month), a total of 7 days. This solution will cause "isolated working days" and "one day off" after the New Year.
If the weekend starts on the second day of February, the vacation period is from February 10 (the fourth day of August) to February 17 (the fifth day of August, Saturday), which can be naturally connected with the first weekend after the holiday, resulting in at least 8 days weekend. At the same time, we will jointly encourage and guide enterprises and institutions to implement one paid annual holiday for employees during the Spring Festival, which can create a 9-day long weekend during the festival.
In addition to "encouraging and guiding" one-day paid holiday on New Year's Eve, the Ministry of Transport also simultaneously adjusted the applicable time of the new free policy for small vehicles on highways during the New Year to the Spring Festival to the ninth day of the lunar month.
4. Will there be a holiday during the Spring Festival in the future? Whether this new policy will be continued in the future depends on the actual effectiveness of the new policy implemented last year. If the implementation is relatively smooth and the public accepts it highly, it may continue to be used in the future.
If there is no holiday, the summer vacation in 2024 will look like this
