It’s no
secret. We Chinese are overworked and crave a better work-life balance. And this
need to balance our family life with our work was highlighted in a recent MRI
China Group survey involving 2,265 Chinese employees aged between 25 and 37
years of age who listed “A work-life balance” as one of the three top
motivators to stay with a company. And since talent retention is one of the
most important issues in the ‘War for Talent’, it makes sense to align your
company’s strategy on reducing stress and giving your key staff more time with
their family. It is for this reason that Network HR has launched ‘Family
Friendly Weekend Getaways’.

It can be considered that keeping staff happy has always been an eternal theme which is continuously pursued by HR managers and it is also one of the most difficult parts of human resource management. To make staff happy is one thing, and to keep them happy is another thing, therefore, how to make them happy and maintain their happiness all the time becomes a hard job for HR managers. Basically, the tangible areas associated with staff’s happiness are all well known by HR managers, namely pay, working conditions, promotions, opportunity for personal development, recognition etc. This article focuses on the psychological contract and employee motivation; serving as an update regarding contemporary thinking on non-tangible influences on employee happiness.

Recruitment Transparency
In the last issue of Network HR, Allan Nee of Baode Law in Tianjin wrote a detailed and insightful article about the ways in which your organisation needs to adapt to China's new Labour Laws.

It was the moment we had been preparing for over the last 5 years. Our goal was crystal clear and I had visualised this very occasion countless times.Read More

War, what is it good for?
I believe I can bring the War for Talent to a peaceful end. I came to this realisation two
months ago after I was invited to present at the ‘Corporate Travel and Technology
World' conference in Shanghai. The topic, "Selecting Potential Leaders and Turning a Company from Good to Great", was
provided some months earlier, giving me time to source opinions from
around China. Read More
