A parent of a child under 12 years old can ask their employer for 'disease prevention childcare leave' during the two weeks (extended school holiday period after Chinese New Year due to the Wuhan Coronavirus pandemic). As it is a special policy, the employers are required to approve the child-care leave request, and they cannot deem an employee absent from work or make them take personal or other types of leave, nor can they dismiss or punish the employee or deprive them of a perfect attendance record.
