调休 is China's "adjusted rest" system for creating longer holidays.
When a public holiday falls mid-week, the government shifts working days to adjacent weekends. This creates longer consecutive holidays (usually 3-8 days) but requires working on what would normally be weekends.
Example: If Labor Day is Wednesday, the government might declare Monday-Tuesday as holidays too, but you'll work the previous Saturday and following Sunday to compensate.
☝️ Always check official announcements as dates may vary by year.
