The Chinese word 上班 (shàngbān) is composed of two characters: 上 (shàng), meaning "up" or "ascend", and 班 (bān), meaning "shift" or "class". Together, they literally mean "going up to work" or "starting work". The term is used to refer to the act of going to work or starting one's work day. It is commonly used in both formal and informal settings and is understood by speakers of Mandarin Chinese across different regions.
