Law for all: Constitution Week kicks off
Print Edition
AS the People’s Republic of China celebrates its 75th anniversary, Shanghai has launched a series of Constitution publicity campaigns during its 36th Constitution Week, aligning with the 11th National Constitution Day on December 4.
Kicking off the Constitution Week was the 8th Shanghai Corporate Legal Skills Competition, which emphasized the critical role of compliance awareness and the adherence to legal standards in corporate management.
This innovative competition adopted a dual-format approach, including a “Compliance Knowledge Contest” and a “Corporate Compliance Case Study,” to keep pace with the evolving landscape of corporate legal work.
The team competition segment showcases outstanding compliance cases that serve as shareable, referenceable models for replication, and the individual segment enhances understanding of compliance principles, boosting corporate culture.
The competition has drown participants from both Shanghai and the Yangtze River Delta region, promoting an exchange of corporate legal insights across the region.
Beyond the corporate sphere, these legal awareness efforts extend to other vulnerable groups too, such as the elderly.
The Shanghai Senior Healthcare Group, in partnership with the local residential committees, hosted an event at a nursing home in Pudong. Family legal advisors provided comprehensive answers to the elderly’s concerns about property inheritance, will establishment, and the prevention of elderly fraud.
They simplified complex legal matters using engaging language, making legal knowledge more accessible.
“Legal Classes” were also conducted for the elderly, ensuring they can enjoy their golden years with the protection of the law.
In recent years, the digital economy has given rise to a new workforce, with the number of new forms of employment in China reaching 84 million in 2024, accounting for about 21 percent of the total workforce.
This group covers wide walks of life including delivery couriers, ride-hailing drivers, truck drivers, domestic service workers, and digital content creators.
To serve this huge workforce, the Shanghai Municipal Trade Union Council launched the “2025 Legal Services Action for New Forms of Employment,” which provides legal services online via the “Suishenban” app (闅忕敵鍔), as well as 329 offline sites.
With plans for 100 special events next year, the initiative aims to serve at least 200,000 workers from new forms of employment and provide legal aid services, including negotiation, mediation, and case representation, for at least 1,000 instances.
Through these initiatives, Shanghai has demonstrated its dedication to equipping all segments of society, from the elderly to the modern workforce, with the legal knowledge necessary to navigate their rights and responsibilities.
As Shanghai continues to evolve, these efforts will be the cornerstone of its progress, ensuring that the city’s development is underpinned by a strong foundation of justice and the rule of law.
