Public holiday+2! According to Xinhua News Agency, according to the revised "National Holiday and Memorial Day Holiday Measures" in November 2024, starting from January 1, 2025, all citizens will have an additional 2 days off, including 1 day each for Spring Festival and Labor Day. As soon as the news came out, the related topic quickly climbed onto the hot search list. Holiday arrangements are related to people's livelihoods, so be careful to verify. Looking back at the past, holiday arrangements have sparked widespread discussion. For example, New Year's Eve is not a statutory holiday, and although many units arrange their own holidays through compensatory leave, flexible leave, etc., it still causes inconvenience to many people; For example, there is often a problem of excessive compensatory time off before and after long holidays, which makes office workers feel exhausted. This adjustment is a positive response to these social needs. Someone said on social media, 'There is a feeling of having a voice heard and a need fulfilled.'. Including New Year's Eve as a statutory holiday and ensuring it through institutionalized means will undoubtedly enable the people to better reunite and enjoy the joy of traditional festivals. Looking at May Day again, it has indeed added one statutory holiday, and with weekends, only one day off is needed to have five days off. It seems that the total number of vacation days has not changed, but the burden and pressure on workers before and after the vacation have decreased. Behind the subtle changes, there is a greater respect for workers and public demands. Of course, as a highly concerned topic in society, the adjustment of vacation methods inevitably attracts some different voices. It's normal for everyone to have difficulty adjusting their opinions. However, any institutional adjustment is a dynamic optimization process. While responding to public concerns, decision-making departments are also striving to seek the greatest common denominator of social needs. The adjustment of the holiday policy this time is a manifestation of sincerity and determination, and an important measure to enhance people's well-being. It can be foreseen that this adjustment will bring a series of positive social effects. The topic of "New Year's Eve holiday, Spring Festival flight ticket search volume skyrocketing" has become a hot topic, and netizens are discussing plans for travel and family visits enthusiastically... The overall happiness index of society will further increase. Continuing to listen to the voices of the people and continuously optimizing the vacation system, the sense of gain and happiness of the people will surely reach new heights. (New Society)
