7 Hiring the Team 7 Consider hiring a high-level local representative and make him a real part of your business in China. 1% of everything is more than 100% of nothing.

8 Hiring the Team Mid and juniors 8 Don’t hire someone who can do the job, but hire someone who can learn it. - finding perfect fit will take time and may not even happen - experts will be overly expensive and prone to changing jobs (especially in IT) - growing your own team creates stronger bond between the new employees and the management team and lowers turnover rate

9 Labor Contract Considerations 9 Things to consider when preparing labor contract for a new hire: Tips Contract term It may be difficult to terminate a labor relationship in China before the contract expiration date. Consider signing 1-year fixed contracts with new staff. Working Time System You can use “non-fixed working hours” system for senior staff and sales. Check this carefully of you risk paying a lot of overtime hours at the end of labor dispute… Holidays Make sure that the annual leave meets the Chinese labor law bottom line. Unused statutory leaves can be cashed in by the employees at 300% daily rate. Better have someone monitoring this. Medical Insurance for Expat Staff Always. Always. Always make sure that your expat staff employed in China is covered by international medical plan, including med- evac from China (unless you want to find out how much medical taxi costs. Tip: A lot.)
