I think this is pretty standard for Chinese companies. My friend works for one, and she doesn't get sick days. They must come out of her holiday allowance.

She gets treated better than her Chinese counterparts, though. For Chinese public holidays, they get the day off, but are then expected to give it back to the company at the weekend

This is pretty standard for US companies in general.
