Japan Economic News reports that some Japanese companies are strengthening their personnel system in China and plan to launch a long-term employment based talent strategy in order to retain talent.
The report says that some large Japanese companies plan to take advantage of China's implementation of the new Labor Contract Law which went into effect on January 1, 2008 and extend the term of the contract with employees from the original 1-3 years to 3-5 years.
By the end of June 2007, Japanese manufacturing enterprises had reportedly employed more than one million foreign staff in China, accounting for about one third of the country's total overseas employees. It is estimated that by the end of 2030, Japan's own labor force will reduced by more than 10 million, and, the country's companies will have to rely on China to get talent for their sustainable development.
