Many schools and centres are now offering over the top inflated salaries to entice teachers in an exclusive market. These figures are very often unfulfilled with various excuses given for both salary deductions and visa processing delays. Whilst these schools are trying to get teachers with their exaggerated figures, many are still going out of business due to lower student uptakes and in reality cannot afford to sustain such salaries.
Once the borders are open again to foreigners, salaries will decrease and those teachers on high pay will either be asked to take a pay cut, or simply let go as the market settles back down to more sustainable salary levels, whilst more teachers return to China. BC are taking the middle ground on this issue, so that whilst our salaries are good, they are not going to be too costly, and when the market gains more teachers, our salaries will remain the same without needing to cut our teachers numbers to employ others on a lower rate.
Already we are hearing of teachers being employed illegally without the correct visas/permits on inflated salaries. China is increasingly tightening foreign employment laws, but it is the foreigner who pays the heaviest price for working illegally in China, usually completely unaware of their status. A business or working visa, backed by a general work permit, does not allow anyone to legally teach; you need a Category B Foreigner's Work Permit as an English teacher (registered by FEB).
Also BC will help with the visa and permit process- it will be explained to each teacher and regular updates on status are given. We also ensure that teachers are not taken advantage of, or mistreated by schools. We value our employees' opinions and work as a team to try and make a better future for the teachers, staff, schools, students and company.
