Labour law China Civil Engineering Constructions Corporations v

China Civil Engineering Constructions Corporations v

The respondents' termination was unlawful as the termination letters cited misconduct without evidence or disciplinary proceedings. Compensation is justified but reduced from 30 to 24 months as the original award was excessive. Repatriation costs are not payable due to lack of proof that place of recruitment and termination differed.
