When a company de-registers and closes its operations, current labor contracts will be automatically terminated and affected employees will be entitled to the severance payment. In order for foreign companies to legally de-register, they need to submit an employee settlement plan to the relevant labor bureaus that clearly details how employees that are laid off will be compensated.
