According to Chinese media Jimu News and Hong Kong media outlet South China Morning Post, U Dong-Lai, CEO of Chinese hypermarket 'Fang Dong-Lai', recently announced new management rules through social media.




Under the new rules, employees who are unhappy in marriage should not oppose or interfere with a spouse's divorce request.

Child abuse and domestic violence are also prohibited, and the house should be kept clean and fire-fighting equipment should be kept in the house.

Also, if you borrow money from someone else, you should not ask for an amount higher than your salary.




In addition, employees should not hate their work, and they should plan and pioneer their own lives without relying on their parents or others Lamps are also included in the new rules.

However, U Dong-rai did not say what sanctions or penalties would be imposed if the regulations were not followed.

When the 'unusual' company policy became known, it became a hot topic with more than 9 million views on major platforms alone.




There was a tight race between support and opposition online.

Some netizens noted that "Companies always value positive and healthy virtues and traditional values. I think this corporate culture helps us achieve business success", he responded positively.

Others "He controls the staff like his father. Regulations that infringe on the privacy of workers..."

A legal expert said the company's regulations are legal if they are not related to workers' wages.

He then added "What the company defines is clearly not related to the employee's duties and is beyond the reasonable scope of the employer's management. Companies should not interfere in the personal lives of their employees, and if they enforce rules on workers' privacy, they may be seen as infringing on freedom and privacy", he pointed out.
