No. 7 Chemical Construction · Full chronicle and history

On September 17, a netizen posted on Xiaohongshu (RedNote) claiming that a Chinese-funded project near the port of Ust-Luga, Russia, only offers one day off per week and allows employees to go out only once a month. Performance bonuses are withheld during leave, and there is evidence of nepotism. The netizen advised fresh graduates against working there. The netizen did not name the company, but according to public information, it is suspected to be the Baltic Chemical Complex project contracted by China Chemical Engineering Seventh Construction Co., Ltd.

A large-scale protest by Chinese workers broke out at the Baltic Gas Chemical Complex project in Russia, undertaken by China National Chemical Engineering No. 7 Construction Co., Ltd. The unrest began after Chinese workers were taken away by police while demanding unpaid wages, and over 1,000 workers surrounded the police and forced them to release the workers involved.

On August 11, 2026, at the site of the natural gas-to-methanol chemical complex project in Saint Petersburg, Russia, contracted and built by China National Chemical Engineering No. 7, a large number of Chinese workers launched a rights defense protest due to long-standing neglect of labor rights and wage arrears.
