Real Estate Joint Venture Employment Question

Asked on Mar 25th, 2013 on Real Estate - New York
More details to this question:
I am setting up a off shore joint venture with a Chinese Real Estate company, is there a requirement or labor law that dictates the labor split for domestic workers and foreign workers that I can hire? I want to maximize cheap foreign labor and perhaps apply for temporary work visa for the Chinese labors. Please advise. Thank you!

Foreigners legally working here are governed by local labor laws.  Thus, the residency of the worker does not let you exploit anyone.  You need a lawyer to navigate these issues.
