Cui Pei Jun, founder and CEO of Henan Kuangshan Crane Co., Ltd. of Xinxiang, Henan Province, known in Chinese social media as “the most generous boss”, sparked a nationwide debate after disclosure that he had released an worker for excluding his parent from attending his wedding.
During the February gala, Cui distributed RMB 60 million (about PLN 33 million) in cash to employees, and the full yearly bonus pool exceeded RMB 180 million (about PLN 99 million). Billionaire argued that advanced gratuities aid young workers pay mortgages and car loans. Since 2004, the entrepreneur has besides donated over 35 million RMB (about PLN 19.25 million) for scholarships for 4,800 students from mediocre families. On July 21, his company hired 331 children of employees for a summertime internship.
It was during the beginning ceremony of the internship, reported by the local portal Daxiang News, Cui stressed that respect for parents is “the foundation of decency”. Then he told of the incidental years ago: 1 of his subordinates banned his widowed parent from coming to the wedding, ashamed of her modest appearance. Cui was expected to call for an employee's interview and ask him, “Your father died erstwhile you were 2 years old, and this is how you treat your mother?” then immediately fired him. erstwhile the worker returned later, kneeling and begging to be reinstated, the boss refused. Instead, he offered a occupation in the logistics department of a man’s parent to safe her old age.
The communicative became a viral, gathering more than 24 million views on Chinese social media. net users' reactions are divided. Decision-makers say that a individual incapable to love his own parents simply pretends loyalty to the company, and values specified as gratitude are more crucial than professional skills themselves. In turn, critics rise the question of the limits of the employer's competence. They argue that in a civilised state, the heads of law should not act as moral judges, and dismissal for acts not related to professional duties may constitute a violation of workers' rights.
The incidental highlights the collision of conventional Confucian values, specified as the son-in-law, with modern labour law standards and corporate human resources management in modern China.
