What days are the workdays in China?
Five working days in a week is the official government regulation. Working hours are 8 hours a day, normally from 09:00 a.m. to 06:00 p.m. with two and a half hours break for lunch. All the government offices, institutions, schools, hospitals and other units do not work on Saturdays and Sundays, except some factories whose “weekends” may be within the week to avoid the electricity high peak. The emergency clinic is open when the hospital is closed. Shops are open everyday, normally from 08:30 a.m. to 09:00 p.m.
