AmCham China's HR Forum is pleased to invite you to attend Part II of a members-only event and cocktail on recent amendments made to China's Labor Contract Law and how it will impact your China operations. The session brings a panel of corporate HR and public policy directors together to provide practical examples of how the law will affect employment structures and future business growth.
As of July 1, 2013, companies will no longer be allowed to hire staff through staffing agencies (such as FESCO, CIIC, China Start, etc.) except in very narrow circumstances. Up to 60 million agency workers are currently used in China in all industries, either for headcount reasons, to reduce labor costs or to avoid rigid labor and employment rules. Thus, the new rules may have significant impact on employers and employees alike, if they are strongly enforced.
