| Post subject: Difference:"Employment Agreement" vs. "Labour |
Hi,
Have just recieved a new draft of my contract. The Employer is a WFOE.
The title of the contract changed from "Employment Agreement" to "Labour Contract". Are there any implications with this change that I should be aware of?
Thanks |

I would think it depends whther the clauses in the actual contract have changed at all. |

shanghaiceltic,
Some clauses have changed, but my question arose when I searched for the wording of the title on the web. Something hinted that it cuold mean that the agreement would fall under Civil Law rather than under Labor Law, which could be dramatically different as how you would interpret clauses in the contract, and even more, regulate things not explicitly mentioned in the contract. This is what I'm trying to find out. |

kent_kurt, pardon for jumping on your thread's wagon.
A question per WFOE employee contract: is there any way to have an official "delayed" contract of a sort, while the WFOE is being setup and before the begining of actual operation (and before the documents are done etc.)? Thanks. |

I did that with employees when I was setting up the current rep office. It could not be official but I did say that it would be recognized under UK law as a contract.
Kent_Kurt: Sorry about the non understanding of the two types of law speak. It might be worth contacting your consulate and see if they can offer some free advice. Otherwise you might have to talk to a local lawyer.
