The expatriate package still remains one of the hottest topics for companies operating in China. As China’s market continues to develop, the types of expatriates are also changing rapidly. Companies globally continue to revisit the traditional expatriate package for cost savings, and struggle with pay issues for Chinese returnees and China-hired foreigners. This year’s China Expatriate Compensation and Benefits Study presentation covers the current pay and benefits landscape for global and regional packages as well as returnee and China hire packages. The event is based on the findings of the 2004 Expatriate Compensation and Benefits Study sponsored by AmCham and other chambers of commerce in China.

Come hear highlights and summary findings from this year's report results. The study included a record of 120 companies, capturing the compensation package arrangements for over 1500 expatriates. Copies of the report will be available for sale at the presentation.
