Who is covered by unemployment insurance in China? : De jure coverage, de facto coverage and the dynamics of development

Müller, Armin; Gibson, John; Ten Brink, Tobias - 2025

The long period of fast economic growth in China has created entrenched patterns of dualization in the labour market, and in social security. Chinese law calls for all employment to be formalized and covered by a relatively generous system of five social insurances, including one for...
