The China winter aid It focuses on providing support to the most vulnerable and essential workers, ensuring protection during the cold months.
The ACFTU initiative considers not only the economic situation, but also exposure to adverse working conditions and the importance of the roles performed.
Below, we detail the main groups that will benefit:
Workers in new forms of employment
This group includes app delivery drivers, ride-sharing drivers, and truck drivers.
They represent a significant portion of the urban workforce and are directly exposed to sub-zero temperatures, rain, and snow, especially during long workdays.
The campaign aims to minimize health risks and ensure comfort during the winter by providing winter kits, basic food items, and, when necessary, emergency financial support.
Protecting these workers also helps keep cities functioning, ensuring that essential delivery and transportation services continue to operate without interruption.
Workers in serious financial difficulty
Low-income families, injured workers, or people facing high medical or educational expenses are prioritized in this campaign.
These workers often lack access to sufficient financial reserves to cope with the harsh winter, and ACFTU's assistance provides vital support.
The program includes cash subsidies, consumption vouchers, and winter kits, allowing these workers to maintain their health and well-being, as well as ensuring they can care for their families during the cold season.
Frontline professionals
Employees who cannot be absent from their duties during national holidays, such as those in urban cleaning, security, energy, and essential services, receive special attention.
The campaign offers assistance so that these professionals can fulfill their responsibilities without compromising their safety or comfort.
Through service stations, winter kits, and rest areas, these workers have access to resources that allow them to cope with adverse weather conditions and maintain the continuous operation of services critical to society.
Model workers
The campaign also recognizes professionals who stand out for their exemplary performance, dedication, and spirit of innovation.
These model workers receive additional subsidies, special kits, and public recognition, reinforcing the appreciation of good labor practices.
This aspect of the program encourages engagement, excellence, and motivation among workers, promoting a culture of recognition and stimulating productivity even during challenging periods.
The campaign's focus is to balance material support with social recognition, ensuring that vulnerable and essential workers have the necessary protection, while exemplary professionals are encouraged to maintain high performance standards.
The diversity of groups benefiting reflects ACFTU's commitment to protecting and valuing the entire workforce during the harsh winter of 2025–2026.
