Abstract :

In 2023, China marked the 30th anniversary of the introduction of its first menstrual leave regulations. These regulations were put in place to support the well-being of female workers who suffer from menstrual discomforts like dysmenorrhea. Despite being in effect for three decades, many workplaces across mainland China have yet to fully implement these regulations due to a variety of constraints. Additionally, there is still considerable debate regarding whether such regulations should even exist in the first place. This ongoing disagreement has led to a need for potential solutions to be proposed and implemented to help resolve the debate and effectively address the issue of menstrual leave in the workplace.
