The issue of PetroChina’s treatment abroad!

The treatment varies greatly, which can be seen from two perspectives: employee status and working environment.

According to status, they can be divided into two types - formal employees and external employees. External personnel include: contract personnel (management personnel, technical personnel, etc.); simple job types (chefs, technical workers, etc.); contractor personnel (who often choose separate residence and office space). Regular employees are better than external employees in terms of job allocation, income, subsidies, vacations and other benefits, by varying degrees. Contract migrant workers may be treated poorly by some contractors. Depending on the working environment, in general, the subsidy for on-site personnel is higher than that for headquarters personnel, with specific differences varying. For example, on the Algeria project, field personnel for the same position cost approximately $10,000 more per year than headquarters personnel. Taken together, if other conditions are similar, on-site contract employees may earn more than regular employees at the headquarters.
