如果氣溫高達(dá)37攝氏度，中國(guó)工人們的工作日將會(huì)縮短。

Chinese workers will have a shorter workday if the temperature hits 37 degrees Celsius. That's according to a new draft regulation that's been drawn up by China's health ministry, human resources and social security ministry and the country's top trade unions. It will replace an outdated version that first came into force back in 1960.

The draft has just finished the process of taking opinions from the public. If passed, the new laws will also stop employers from making pregnant women work outdoors when the temperature is over 35 degrees Celsius, or indoors where the temperature is above 33 degrees.
It also widens the old regulation's beneficiaries from industrial, transportation and construction workers and farmers to all laborers who would be affected by the high temperature at work.
The draft lists sunstroke at work as an occupational disease and says it will be covered by work injury insurance. In China, employers are responsible for employees' work injury insurance, which covers treatment fees and compensation.
