China Payroll is excited to introduce our newly launched China Labor Law section — a comprehensive and practical resource designed to help global employers understand and comply with China’s complex employment regulations.
Navigating labor law in China can be challenging, especially for international companies unfamiliar with the local legal system, regional variations, and frequent policy updates. From employment contracts and working hours to social security, minimum wage, and lawful termination, compliance involves numerous interrelated requirements that demand careful attention. Our newly developed section brings together all the essential information employers need to confidently manage their workforce, stay compliant, and avoid costly legal risks.
The guide provides a structured overview of seven key pillars of China’s labor framework, covering the full employment lifecycle from onboarding to separation:
- Employment Contracts – legal requirements, contract types, and key clauses.
- Working Hours & Overtime – standard hours, overtime pay, and flexible systems.
- Leave Provisions – annual, sick, maternity, and other statutory leaves.
- Minimum Wage – regional wage standards and employer obligations.
- Social Security Contributions – a breakdown of the “Five Insurances and One Housing Fund.”
- Labor Unions – employee representation and dispute resolution.
- Employment Termination – lawful grounds, procedures, and severance rules.
Each topic is carefully organized in a clear, practical, and employer-focused format, making China’s complex labor regulations easier to interpret and apply in real business scenarios. Rather than simply outlining legal clauses, this section connects law with practice — translating statutory requirements into actionable insights for HR managers, business leaders, and compliance professionals.
