Hu Dongyun, the deputy director of the Hubei Provincial Labor and Social Security Department, said that according to Chinese rules and regulations, March 8, the International Women's Day, was a holiday designated by law and companies needed to offer a half-day off for their female employees.
Hu said that since this year's IWD fell on Sunday, female employees can apply for a fivefold payment for a half day's work if they are asked to work more than a half day. Employees can report to the labor department employers who refuse pay this overtime.
A range of activities were be arranged for women on IWD. For example, free bus travel and free entrance to scenic spots.
