Talents are hard to find and even harder to retain. Career expectations of China’s young labour force have changed tremendously within the last years. Recruiting and management of China’s young white collar labour force are challenging many companies, as they are faced with unrealistic career expectations from young employees and find it difficult to differentiate themselves as an attractive employer. How can they improve the assessment process and what training programs does young talent really need?
On top, regulations make HR management a very complex process. On July 5, 2015, the “Several Rules on Implementing the Labour Contract Law” were published as draft. These rules contain clarifications about use of employee’s personal data, various clarifications on conclusion of open-ended labour contracts, mutual agreement on suspension of the labour contract, etc.
The European Chamber is delighted to welcome two experts, Ralph Koppitz, Chief Representative, Partner, Taylor Wessing Shanghai Representative Office, and Miriam Wickertsheim, Director, Direct HR, to elaborate successful employment and staff development in China.
