This course offers an advanced study of human resources policies and problems in Mainland China. The aim of this course is to introduce to the students current and practical issues of doing HRM in Mainland China. This course prepares HRM students (1) to make decisions on various HR policies such as compensation and benefits of local employees, management of out-of-province workers, and training and development of unskilled and illiterate workers; and (2) to give attention to getting Chinese workers and staff to accept responsibility, to exercise initiative, to emphasise quality, and to communicate readily across functions.
