subject: Asia Briefing Releases New Guide: Human Resources And Payroll In China [print this page] Labor contracts, social insurance contributions, salary packages, visas for foreigners, and more!
Asia Briefing, in cooperation with its parent company Dezan Shira & Associates, has just released a new 102-page guide introducing everything that foreign investors in China should be familiar with from the human resources and payroll management perspective. This guide, titled Human Resources and Payroll in China (Third Edition), is immediately available as a PDF download on the Asia Briefing Bookstore.
A firm understanding of Chinas laws and regulations related to human resources and payroll management is essential for foreign investors who want to establish or are already running foreign-invested entities in China. This guide aims to satisfy that information demand, while also serving as a valuable tool for local managers and HR professionals who may need to explain complex points of Chinas labor policies in English.
The first chapter of this guide focuses on the recruitment process in China. While the overall process for hiring people in China does not differ much from elsewhere in the world, there are a number of points that require special attention. The rest of the guide has been designed to cover the most important issues relating to managing a Chinese workforce in enough detail to satisfy the requirements and curiosity of most managers either working in China or involved in HR from the headquarters abroad.
Chinese law places significant obligations on employers to remain legally compliant in labor matters. In this guide, we also address the major issues in managing employment relationships in China.
Included in this guide:
Recruiting Professionals
Hiring Staff
Handling Payroll
Managing the Employment Relationship
Terminating the Employment Relationship
Arranging for Visas
Within these topics, we address labor contracts, company rulebooks, salary packages, social insurance contributions, special circumstances for employees (extended sickness or pregnancy), termination and severance pay, and visas for foreign staff and Chinese staff being sent to work abroad.
Human Resources and Payroll in China (Third Edition) is out now and immediately available as a PDF download on the Asia Briefing Bookstore.
