Implications for employers from the revised Criminal Law in 2011;
The new Work-related Injury Insurance Regulations that now covers public institutions, social groups, non-profit grassroots organisations, foundations, and law and accounting firms;
The new Social Insurance Law that binds foreigners to contribute to the social insurance system;
Updates to Shanghai’s social insurance system and expatriates’ eligibility to health and disability benefits; and
Corporate tax benefits for recruiting unemployed individuals; and
Updates to minimum wage rates for major Chinese cities.

The book remains the most comprehensive and reliable guide to the best HR practice in China, with easy-to-understand coverage of employment law basics such as recruitment, benefits, tax, expatriate and foreign workers, training, industrial relations, termination and redundancy.
