Recently, the topic of "May Day holiday" has become popular again, and everyone is discussing whether this system should be abolished. The matter of taking a break is really not a joke, and many people love and hate it. It can also drive the tourism economy, allowing different places to have holidays at different times to avoid overcrowding.
The cause of this incident can be traced back many years to the introduction of a compensatory leave system in order to stimulate the economy, especially the service industry and tourism.
The original intention of this system is good, so that everyone can go out to travel during the holiday, promote consumption, and also make the passenger flow of tourist attractions more stable, avoiding the full situation of holidays.
Different enterprises have different implementation of compensatory leave. Some companies may use the compensatory leave regulations to force employees to work overtime before and after the holidays, which is not illegal, but can also "legally" increase the workload.
Public opinion on the compensatory leave system is polarized. Some people believe that compensatory time off makes their lives more flexible, with the option to travel when there are fewer people and avoid congestion and high costs during rush hour.
They feel that compensatory time off is actually sacrificing workers' rest time to meet their economic needs, which ignores the basic rights and health of workers.
They called for the abolition of compensatory holidays and for them to truly become holidays, not tools for adjusting work. In the face of such controversy, the government and relevant departments began to consider the reform of the compensatory leave system.
Some new ideas are put forward, such as appropriately extending the number of consecutive days of leave, avoiding excessive conversion of single and double holidays, and at the same time strengthening the supervision of overtime regulations of enterprises to ensure that the rights and interests of workers are not infringed.
