I attended the annual Dragon Ball once again this past Saturday at the Metro Convention Centre, celebrating Chinese New Year. I intended to do a blog describing last year’s changes to Chinese labour law, and to try and find some summaries of how those laws have worked. But, alas, I am teaching 4 eight hour days this week, and I am low on time. If anyone knowledgeable about Chinese labour and employment laws is out there and wants to submit a “Guest Blog”, please contact me.
For anyone interested in learning something about Chinese labour and employment laws, here are some good and very recent papers available for free download:
Sean Cooney, “Making Chinese Labor Law Work: The Prospects for Regulatory Innovation in the People’s Republic of China”
Cooney, Biddulph, Zhu, Kungang, “China’s New Labour Contract Law: Responding to the Growing Complexity of Labour Relations in the PRC”
M. Belzer, P. Shih Wei, Y. Nan, “Industrial Relations Experiments in China: Balancing Equity and Efficiency the Chinese Way”
H. Josephs, “Measuring Progress Under China’s Labor Law: Goals, Processes, Outcomes”
M. Funke & Y. Chen, “China’s New Labour Contract Law: No Harm to Employment?”
A, Helegua, “Getting Paid: Processing the Labor Disputes of China’s Migrant Workers”
