A Chinese man won a court case after being fired for sick leave, with judges ruling that step data couldn’t override medical proof.
A Chinese man, Chen, was fired in 2019 after taking sick leave for a heel spur, despite providing medical proof, after his employer cited surveillance showing over 16,000 steps on the leave day.
The company claimed he lied, but after two court trials, the ruling upheld a labor arbitration decision, declaring the termination illegal and awarding Chen 118,779 yuan in compensation.
The court emphasized that digital activity data cannot override medical evidence, affirming employee rights and sparking national debate over workplace surveillance and privacy.
