ADP Payroll Around The World15 Tammi 2025

Payroll in China

China may no longer hold the title of the most populous country in the world—that distinction has now gone to India—but its 1.4 billion citizens and a GDP of around 18 trillion US dollars still make it a political and economic powerhouse. From the manufacturing and tech sectors to green energy and services, China offers vast opportunities to multinational businesses, but the unique payroll challenges should not be underestimated.

In this episode of Payroll Around the World, we’re joined by ADP experts Lily Ma and Junbin Li as they guide us through some of China’s most important labor laws and compliance issues, as well as local regulations. We’ll discuss China’s sophisticated social insurance system, the varying rules across its provinces and cities, and the mandatory Public Housing Fund, a housing allowance for workers that both employers and employees contribute to. We also hear from Dongdong, a teacher in Shanghai, who tells us her personal experiences with the housing fund and how she and her husband used it to purchase a home.
