I am also having issues trying to find anything on China as well. To find what public holidays they have, I had to look at the travel websites. As could not find anything.

If there is a website out there, I too would be interested.

Hi Suzanne

In China the labour laws are governed by the The China Employment Law 2008. There is a good overview of the law covered in two parts from China Success Stories. The link below will take you to Part I and there is link through to Part II.

Hope this heps,

In China, the law system is very different from the system in Australia. Basically speaking, there are three major frameworks; one is the law system (this is including the Labor Law and labor contract law), the other system is regulations this is from the central or local government, last one is some industrial regulations which also has some impact on our daily HRM practice.

Because it is a quite complex systems, if you have some specific questions about it, maybe I could help further.
