The Shuntian Chemical Group, based in China’s Shandong province, told its 1,200 employees in January that any unmarried workers aged between 28 and 58, including those who are divorced, were required to "resolve your personal marriage issues" by 30 September.
總部位於中國山東省的舜天化工集團1月間通知1200名員工，凡年齡在28歲至58歲之間的未婚者，包括離婚者，都必須在9月30日前「解決個人婚姻問題」。
"If not completed by the first quarter, you must write a self-reflection," its announcement read.
公告寫道：「如果第1季沒有解決，必須寫一份自省表。」
"If not completed by the second quarter, the company will conduct an evaluation. If you cannot get married and establish a family by the third quarter, the company will terminate your labour contract," it continued.
公告還說：「如果第2季也沒解決，公司將進行評估。如果第3季前不能結婚成家，公司將終止勞動契約。」
The notice also criticised single employees for "not responding to the national call" to marry and have children."
該公告還批評單身員工「未響應國家號召」結婚生子。
Officials from the local human resources and social security bureau visited the company and pointed out that the policy violated Chinese labor law. The company withdrew it by the next day.
當地人力資源和社會保障局官員視察該公司，指該政策違反中國勞動法。該公司第2天就撤回公告。
