Employment & work permits

劳动与工作许可

We draft PRC-compliant employment contracts and handbooks, advise on terminations and restructuring, and handle work permits and residence permits for foreign staff. China's labour rules strongly favour employees, so the paperwork needs to be right from day one.

Employment

  • Written employment contracts within one month of hiring
  • Employee handbooks adopted through the proper consultation process
  • Social insurance and housing fund registration
  • Terminations, restructuring and dispute defence

Work permits

Foreign employees need a work permit, a Z visa and then a residence permit. We prepare the applications and track each stage.
