V. Conclusions and suggestions
It can be seen from the data of all parties.Extending May Day holiday has a basic public opinion but requires systematic consideration. It is recommended to adopt a step-by-step implementation strategy:
1. Optimize the adjustment method in the short term to avoid extreme arrangements such as "going to work 7 days in a row after vacation";
2. Promote the implementation of the paid annual leave system in the medium term. Data from the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security shows that only 50% of enterprises have fully implemented it;
3. In the long run, you can consider extending the May Day holiday to 3-5 days, forming a balanced distribution with the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival.
Ultimately, the reform of the vacation system requires taking into account the rights and interests of workers, the affordability of enterprises and the social and economic operation, and achieving win-win results between all parties through institutional innovation.
