PROVISIONS ON LABOUR MANAGEMENT IN CHINESE-FOREIGN EQUITY JOINT
VENTURES
(Promulgated by the State Council on July 26, 1980)
Article 1
Labour management problems concerning Chinese-foreign equity joint
ventures (hereinafter referred to as "joint ventures") shall all be
handled in accordance with these Provisions, in addition to the pertinent
stipulations in Article 6 of the Law of the People's Republic of China on
Chinese-Foreign Equity Joint Ventures.
Article 2
Matters pertaining to employment, dismissal and resignation of the workers
and staff members, tasks of production and other work, wages and awards
and punishment, working time and vacation, labour insurance and welfare,
labour protection and labour discipline in joint ventures shall be
stipulated in the labour contracts signed.
A labour contract is to be signed by a joint venture and the trade union
organization in the joint venture collectively. A relatively small joint
venture may sign contracts with the workers and staff members
individually.
A signed labour contract must be submitted to the labour management
department of the government of the province, autonomous region or
municipality directly under the Central Government for approval.
Article 3 [*1]
The workers and staff members of a joint venture either recommended by the
authorities in the locality in charge of the joint venture or the labour
management department, or recruited by the joint venture itself with the
consent of the labour management department, shall all be selected by the
joint venture through rigorous examinations. Joint ventures may run
workers' schools and training courses to train managerial personnel and
skilled workers.
Article 4
With regard to the workers and staff members who become redundant as a
result of changes in production and technical conditions of the joint
venture, those who fail to meet the requirements after training and are
not suitable for other jobs in the joint venture can be discharged.
However, this must be done in accordance with the stipulations in the
labour contract and the enterprise must give compensation to these
workers. The dismissed workers and staff members will be assigned to
other jobs by the authorities in charge of the joint venture or the labour
management department.
Article 5 [*2]
The joint venture may, according to the degree of seriousness of the case,
take action against those workers or staff members whose violation of the
rules and regulations of the enterprise has resulted in certain bad
consequences. Punishment by discharge must be reported to the authorities
in charge of the joint venture and the labour management department for
approval.
Article 6 [*3]
With regard to the dismissal and punishment of workers and staff members
by the joint venture, the trade union has the right to raise objections if
it considers them unreasonable, and send representatives to seek a
solution through consultation with the board of directors. Should the
consultation fail to arrive at a solution, the matter shall be handled in
accordance with the procedures set forth in Article 14 of these
Provisions.
Article 7
When workers and staff members of a joint venture, on account of special
circumstances, submit their resignation to the enterprise through the
trade union in accordance with the labour contract, the enterprise shall
give its consent.
Article 8
The pay levels of workers and staff members in a joint venture shall be
determined at 120-150% of the real wages of workers and staff members of
state-owned enterprises of the same trade in the locality.
Article 9
The wage standards, the forms of payment, and bonus and subsidy systems
are to be discussed and decided by the board of directors.
Article 10
The rewards and welfare funds drawn by the joint venture from the profits
must be used as rewards and collective welfare and shall not be diverted
to other uses.
Article 11
A joint venture must pay for the Chinese workers' and staff members'
labour insurance, cover their medical expenses and various kinds of
government subsidies in the line with the standards obtaining in state-
owned enterprises.
Article 12
The employment of foreign workers and staff members and their dismissal,
resignation, pay, welfare and social insurance and other relevant matters
shall all be specified in the employment contracts.
Article 13
Joint ventures must implement the relevant rules and regulations of the
Chinese Government on labour protection and ensure safety in production
and civilized production. The labour management department of the Chinese
Government has the right to supervise and inspect their implementation.
Article 14
Labour disputes occurring in a joint venture shall first of all be solved
through consultation by the two parties. If consultation fails to arrive
at a solution, either party or both parties may request arbitration by the
labour management department of the people's government of the province,
autonomous region or municipality directly under the Central Government
where the joint venture is located. Either party that disagrees to the
arbitration award may file a suit at a people's court.
Article 15
The right of interpretation of these Provisions resides in the State
Bureau of Labour of the People's Republic of China.
Article 16
These Provisions shall come into force as of the date of promulgation.
