How does Labour Law protect foreigners?

In  every labour contract, there are statutory clauses and promissory clauses. The statutory clauses shall be stipulated  in accord with labour law, and the promissory clauses could be stipulated by contractual parties with free will as long as they don’t violate other laws in China.

The difference  between Chinese labourer and Foreign labourer when concluding a labour relation in China is the foreign labourer has more promissory areas. Due to statutory rules are used to protect labourer, the Chinese labourer is protected more.

*When I talked about statutory areas,  I don’t mean the entire area is statutory, it’s just there are certain rules in this area shall be complied with. For example,  about the working time, the law just draws up the maximum working hour per day and per week, any agreement lower than this maximum limitation is allowed.
