Chang Li, Political Science and Public Management, Wuhan University

This talk will examine the changes in employee-organizational relationships resulting from Chinese Public Institutional Reform. Employees, both the survivors of the reforms and post-reform recruits, have substantially different expectations about employee-organizational relationships. This talk will explore this changing relationship through comparative study methods on the angle of commitment. Compared to traditional employees, post-reform recruits demonstrate lower levels of affective commitment and continuance commitment to their organization as well as higher levels of work commitment. To adapt to the changing employee-organization relationship this talk will offer an HRM innovational framework to facilitate the transformations in work design, recruitment, training and retention. The talk will conclude with an explanation of this framework for human resource management in public institutions and some suggestions for future research.
