Responsible Business

Frequent reports in the press have featured well-documented cases in China of child labour, prison labour, compulsory excessive overtime and serious health and safety problems. If your partner in China is found to be indulging in these practices, this could have a severe impact on the reputation of your business.

The Chinese government has recently introduced new laws on workers rights and signalled its intention that these should be enforced.

Our Responsible Business Team can help you by explaining the risks, carrying out a risk assessment of your business partner/potential partner and if there are any problems, can work out and implement a plan to bring them into compliance with Chinese Labour law and the essential minimum international standards for workers laid down by the United Nations.
