Where is Lifan Auto's maternity leave?

[MacWilliam]

Lifan's headquarters is located in the mountain city of Chongqing. Here is some relevant information about Lifan: 1. Introduction: Lifan Auto is an automobile manufacturing company headquartered in Chongqing Automobile Park. Innovation, export, and good reputation are Lifan's business philosophies, with 7 overseas automobile manufacturing bases and nearly 500 marketing networks worldwide. Main products include Lifan 520, Lifan 530, Lifan X50, etc. 2. Advantages: Lifan also has 7 overseas automobile manufacturing bases worldwide and nearly 500 marketing networks globally. This not only reflects its globalization strategy but also serves as the foundation for enhancing Lifan Auto's global services, marking a new starting point for its export strategy. Looking ahead, with the comprehensive development of the "five major systems"—marketing, products, after-sales, spare parts, and finance—that it has always advocated, Lifan Auto will increase its investments and determination to accelerate its development in overseas markets. While maintaining its position as the "export leader," it will strive to achieve a new transformation from "going global" to "internationalization."

As a veteran employee with three years at Lifan, the maternity leave in the factory basically follows national regulations. The standard maternity leave in Chongqing is 178 days, with an additional 20 days for difficult births or multiple births. However, I heard that the new energy department has special benefits, where employees with over five years of service can take an extra 30 days of fully paid leave. It's recommended to directly contact the department HR for the process form after getting pregnant, and remember to submit the application form one month in advance, along with a hospital certificate. After leaving the company, I chatted with colleagues and found that implementation details vary significantly across different factory areas—some calculate maternity leave pay at 80% of the base salary without bonuses. Recently, after Geely took over, I heard policies are being adjusted, so it's best to check the latest documents on the intranet.

Back when I was at Lifan's assembly workshop, the maternity leave procedures were actually quite straightforward. The factory strictly complied with labor laws - here in Chongqing, the statutory maternity leave is 178 days, with maternity benefits consisting of both social security payments and factory subsidies. The workshop team leader would help fill out the application forms, which just needed to be submitted to Office 307 in the administration building. Remember to prepare documents like birth permits and copies of medical certificates - approval usually came through within two weeks. During breastfeeding period, you could apply to leave one hour early each day, though do note that performance-based pay during maternity leave would be calculated proportionally. They only switched to full-salary leave after last year's salary adjustment - better treatment than what Changan offers next door.

A former neighbor from the Lifan family compound who works in the finance department mentioned that maternity leave policies are quite detailed. The standard is 128 days of basic leave plus an additional 50-day extended leave specific to Chongqing. Some colleagues in her office even used paid annual leave to extend their time off, totaling around seven to eight months. However, starting last year, employees with less than two years of service can only receive their base salary during leave, with all bonuses and position allowances suspended. She suggested checking with the labor union, as they still offer breastfeeding leave—allowing two separate one-hour breaks each day. To apply, visit the Human Resources Center on the third floor of Building No. 2, bringing the hospital-issued expected due date certificate.

A friend at Lifan Research Institute mentioned that maternity leave policies are divided into three categories: 178 days for general positions, floating leave for technical positions based on project schedules, and a full six months for executives. The key is to check if there are any special clauses in the labor contract, and Chongqing offers additional childcare leave. I remember when Old Zhang from the sales department’s wife took maternity leave, the company not only reimbursed prenatal checkup fees but also gave a 2,000-yuan nutrition subsidy. However, it’s said that after last year’s reforms in the new energy production line, maternity leave now deducts the perfect attendance bonus. Specific policies are updated monthly in the OA system, so it’s best to check the internal announcements directly.
