FenXun Partners' employment practice covers employment policies, employee investigations, mass terminations, and day-to-day employee management work. The team also assists with labour dispute resolution, immigration issues, pensions, and benefits and compensation. The group also notably benefits from its joint operation office with international law firm Baker McKenzie LLP. In Shanghai, Zheng Lu, routinely advises on restructurings, employee investigations, lay-offs, transaction-related employee transfers, and strikes; and Joseph Yue focuses on PRC employment issues in both advisory and transactional scenarios. The track record of Beijing-based Bofu An includes labour union matters; while other mainland names are labour arbitration and litigation specialist, Sufi Shang, and Ting Zhang, who advises on a range of employment issues.
