Janice QuSocial Insurance Law consolidates provisions in various social insurance-related regulations
China's top legislature, the Standing Committee of the National People's congress, promulgated its PRC Social Insurance Law (社会保险法) on October 28. The new law will entitle foreign nationals working in China to the same benefits as Chinese citizens. Foreign investors will assume the same social insurance responsibilities as local Chinese enterprises.
The new law will come into effect on July 1 2011. It is the first time the government has legislated a social insurance system on a national level, and it has put foreign-invested companies, state-owned and private local enterprises all on the same playing field.
