Features: This year marks the 10th anniversary of the promulgation of the "Labor Law of the People's Republic of China." These ten years have been a period of rapid advancement in China's legal system construction, during which a large number of laws and regulations were formulated or revised. Meanwhile, major national policies and guidelines related to labor protection were continuously introduced during this decade. The medical reform led to the preliminary formation of the medical insurance system, the gradual abolition of the retirement system made old-age insurance a concern for everyone, and the increasing social competition provided basic living security for some people through unemployment insurance. It can be said that China's social security system is gradually improving, but it is still far from perfect. This situation has made more and more people in need of legal tools to protect their rights. It is precisely to provide the disadvantaged general public with a powerful tool for rights protection that we compiled and published the sub-series "Legal and Life Series" titled "Labor Self-Help Handbook." The handbook includes five sub-books, covering all aspects of labor life, namely: "Social Insurance Supervision · Industrial Injury - Medical Insurance," "Old-Age · Unemployment · Maternity Insurance," "Wages · Working Hours · Labor Disputes," "Labor Contracts · Labor Employment," and "Labor Safety · Labor Protection · Prevention and Treatment of Occupational Diseases." Each sub-book not only includes laws, administrative regulations, departmental rules, and other regulatory documents related to the topic but also collects some typical cases issued by the Supreme People's Court or local courts, to enhance the practicality of the handbook as a legal reference. At the same time, to better suit non-professional readers, we provide FAQs before important laws, administrative regulations, and departmental rules to guide and help readers quickly find the key points of the regulations, enabling them to resolve practical issues more efficiently. We also add annotations to relevant terms in the regulations to assist general readers in understanding and applying the laws. We hope that our product can serve as a reliable self-help tool for you, a common laborer, when encountering related difficulties.
