Adam Livermore, Partner of Dezan Shira & Associates will walk you through the difficulties of terminating employees in China and answer questions including:
• What can you do to put your company in as strong a position as possible prior to implementing a termination?
• What kind of things should you pay special attention to during the termination process?
• What kind of circumstances can impede the termination process and what options are available to employers in such circumstances?
• What are the costs involved in terminating employees under different scenarios?
