Online Seminar: Wages and Salaries 2025 in China Salary increases and benchmarks at German companies in China
Contents: Every year, the German Chamber of Commerce in China collects salaries and planned salary increases for the coming year from all member companies in China. The published figures are the total annual cost per employee (including salaries, commission, bonuses and allowances, but also costs for employee development) divided by 12. This figure is at least 10% higher than the monthly wage costs and at least 30% (depending on location) higher than the gross salaries.
Taking into account the different ceilings and contribution rates of social insurance contributions in each city (every city different!) in China, APMC calculates the monthly gross income (= salary + allowance) for all common positions for your location in China and also provide recommendations for the “correct” salary increase for 2025 depending on company size and results of 2024, as well as the best way (lowest additional cost) to implement the salary increase in China.
