In Chinese employment law, the paid annual leave is an entitlement for workers who have been at the company for at least a year and allows for payment of wages during an annual holiday.

The annual leave granted ranges from 5 to 15 days depending on how many years the employee has worked. National holidays and weekends are not counted as days taken for annual leave. Employers are required to provide paid annual leave to employees, and if they fail to do so, additional payment is required for workers during the holiday, if the worker is willing to attend, the payment during the holiday is 300% of their ordinary rate.
