Good to protect female employees, but how?

In a regulation that will come into effect in October, female employees in North China's Shanxi province who are diagnosed with menopausal syndromes yet show no obvious sign of recovery after treatment can apply for transfer to another position that better suits their condition. Comments:
Considering the physical and mental suffering endured by female employees during their menopause, the Shanxi government has included their rights in its local labor protection regulations, since these are not included in the country's Special Rules on the Labor Protection of Female Employees. It is undoubtedly a big step forward in terms of governance and human concern, and is praiseworthy.
