A recent event in Luoyang, Henan, has captured widespread attention online. An employee from Pangdonglai took her child to attend a Xu Song concert while on her flexible leave, and during an interactive moment at the show, she proudly announced, "I'm from Pangdonglai, and I'm on my flexible leave." This sparked admiration among netizens, who noted that her confidence instantly made her the center of attention and the envy of the crowd.

This incident highlights how Pangdonglai has consistently led the way in employee vacation policies across China. The company's founder, Yu Donglai, has frequently shared his views on annual leave and working hours, setting an example by prioritizing time off himself.

According to current policies, employees who have completed one year of service at Pangdonglai are entitled to a total of 40 days of vacation annually. This includes 30 days of annual leave and 10 days of flexible leave, which netizens have nicknamed "unhappy leave." For employees who have passed their three-month probation period but have not yet reached one year of service, the company offers two days of annual leave per month, in addition to the 10 days of flexible leave.

Notably, all of these vacation days can be scheduled flexibly according to personal preferences, and the human resources system automatically approves the requests, eliminating any bureaucratic hurdles for employees seeking time off.
