Q: Has anyone been paid for January yet?

As we will soon be moving into March, I'm interested to know if people have been paid for January yet?  Understandably it's not possible for payroll departments to get into work to process pay etc. Given the special circumstances and the ease of online money transfers, could and should employers be finding other ways to pay employees at this difficult time? 
Also, what are the legal pay rates for February? Any information and personal experience on this matter would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Yes. I was paid for January in January. 

TuskyT123:

That's for the reply. How about Feb salary? Would you know at all what the standard percentage of pay is in these circumstances?

Where are you working? If it's for a language school they might be feeling the financial pressure. If it's a govt run school / uni or whatever then who knows...

 

Strange times right now, things like contracts and usual office procedures probably aren't much of a guide at the moment.

TuskyT123:

It's a private language school. Being part of a consortium of different businesses, the school is well protected financially. So where is da cashiola? :D

Some schools started to lay off their foreign teachers. Some schools don’t want to pay full pay check.

Worrying times.

It depends. I think it will create a new market because most teachers will not come back to China for a while.

Our HR paid everyone correctly month to month, but that might be something to do with the size of our company, like, more than 30 branches.

A:I had a similar experience in HK. If I recall correctly, before or at the Z visa application, I had to submit ME from the ordinary HK clinic, where I explained why I need ME and I asked them to examine only necessary things (I don't remember the cost ...), and then ... I got Z stamp and when back in China, I had to complete another RP ME, which was on the employer, i.e. included in the Contract ...We've never discussed refund of payment for HK ME with my employer. Year 2013 ...I'd say, that is a regular thingy embassies around the world require, before issuing visas for LT stay in the country. "Vladimir Vladimiro-Witch ras-Putin" (LOL@your pronunciation ..) demands the same thingy before granting LT stay in Ruski.  ... Haa, 2013 was the Snowden's year. I was in Kowloon at the time of his landing .. with all these files ... I'm-Still-in-LMAO-State ... Cost for the ME in HK was around HK$ 2000/200 EUR, and ME was kind of swift, quicker and way shorter than on the mainland ... -- icnif77
