Work & The Office — HSK 2 Chinese Worksheet

上班 (shàng bān) and 下班 (xià bān) bookend every workday in Mandarin — and they are just two of the ten HSK 2 words on this free printable worksheet covering jobs, coworkers, and office routines. Each word appears in 田字格 (tián zì gé) tracing grids with pinyin above, so you can build handwriting muscle memory for the characters you need to talk about work life.

You can print the page directly or download it as a PDF — no signup needed. The vocabulary comes from the HSK 3.0 lists and matches SayMei's course weeks, so it pairs naturally with our HSK 2 lessons hub page. For extra practice space, grab our blank printable 田字格 writing grid paper as a companion.

What's on the worksheet

The page focuses on ten workplace terms. You will trace and write 工作 (gōng zuò), 工人 (gōng rén), 办公室 (bàn gōng shì), 公司 (gōng sī), 经理 (jīng lǐ), and 同事 (tóng shì), along with four more words for office activities and states. Together they let you describe who you work with, where you work, and what your day looks like — from 开会 (kāi huì) to 忙 (máng).

How to practice

Start by tracing the guided strokes in the 田字格 boxes, following each stroke in order. Then move to the blank grids and write each character from memory. Say the word aloud as you write — pairing the sound, the meaning, and the hand motion is what makes characters stick. If you want more vocabulary after this set, try our free printable Chinese worksheet generator to build your own pages, or move on to the printable "People & Life Stages" worksheet (HSK 2) and the printable "Future Plans & Big Choices" worksheet (HSK 2).

This worksheet suits anyone at HSK 2 level — whether you are a learner preparing for exams, a parent helping a child practice, or a teacher handing out classroom pages.
