The PRC Labour Contract Law requires employers to draft and implement an employment handbook within their organizations. In the employment handbook the rights of the employees are listed, and employment obligations specified. The handbook must be compliant with law and regulations and is subject to standards of fairness and reasonableness.

Employment handbooks should be regarded as an extension of the employment relationship in which the company clearly communicates the companies’ policies to its employees and provides its employees with detailed discipline records and measures in order to have the necessary evidence in hand should there be a need to prove grounds for implementing disciplinary measures. Employment handbooks are legally binding in courts.

In this publication multiple examples of main provisions which are commonly included in the employment handbook will be provided. These provisions are substantiated by additional information on the purpose of the provision, the meaning and implication of its content, and further information on the background to place the provision in a broader context.
