Especially in the developing countries, the increasingly dynamic environment faced by interdependent organizations in international PPPs also brings to light the inefficiencies and failures of the hierarchical model in dealing with complex and unstable environmental forces. Because bureaucratic models are of little use given the dynamic and uncertain environment of PPP implementation, new design concepts are imperative. Drawing upon the important concept mentioned by previous studies as an organization structure positioned in an environment that is both dynamic and complex, six types of coordinating mechanisms are worked out (against their antitypes which deter success) as the keys to support the operational success of international PPPs in developing countries. And further this article explains the rationale of my recommended design approaches through six PPPs case example, hoping to provide a feasible scheme for improving the quality of PPPs in developing countries.","PeriodicalId":54013,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Human Resources Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46548997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through primary research that targets the managers and employees of the Publishing House, 63 valid questionnaires were collected. The survey was conducted to testify six pairs of variables, specifically the relationship between leaders' communication (independent variable) and employee performance (response variable), between leaders' mental support and employee performance & psychological health, between the use of technology and leadership effectiveness, and between leaders' promotion of flexible organizational culture and employee performance (e.g. engagement, productivity, creativity). The research findings show that leaders' effective communication, mental support, and promotion of flexible organizational culture are great challenges for leaders to manage the employees who work in the virtual environment and improve overall employee performance. The survey results are of great value to the virtual workplace as leaders should emphasize their skills and abilities to deal with flexible working employees, e.g. empowering, effective online communication, and motivating employees in the remote working environment, etc.","PeriodicalId":54013,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Human Resources Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45191918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis results showed that work stress had a significant positive correlation to the challenge stress and a significant negative correlation to the hindrance stress. The task performance and the work performance had a significant positive correlation to the work stress and a significant negative correlation to the hindrance stress.

However, the effect of the said system for work safety accidents in chemical industry is unsatisfactory, and the operation way of the government's public power lacks substantial innovation. By analyzing the administrative accountability of 11 major work safety accidents in chemical industry during 2010-2020, the dilemma of public power in the administrative accountability in compartmentalized governance and vertically decentralized authoritarianism was explored from the perspective of empirical analysis in this paper. The research found that current administrative accountability system has such drawbacks as unclear subject of responsibility of public power, ambiguous ownership of responsibility, imperfect democratic structure and information asymmetry. To achieve effective operation of public power in work safety administrative accountability system, attention should be paid to promote the formation of accountability synergy and strengthen the diversification of accountability subjects, and to boost the disclosure of information, improve the transparency of the operation of public power, and reinforce the consistency between power and responsibilities. Moreover, it is necessary to establish and improve the legal system for administrative accountability for work safety accidents, clarify the division of responsibility and achieve accurate accountability, so as to enhance the rationality and operability of the administrative accountability system.","PeriodicalId":54013,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Human Resources Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43549638","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both organizations and individuals have benefited a lot from these new technologies. However, everything is two-sided, which means the development of various new technologies in the work scene, such as smartphones, has had a series of negative effects on employees' job performance and their physical and mental health. Researchers generally regard smartphone addiction in the work scene as a behavioral addiction in a specific environment. The formation of employees' smartphone addiction is affected by many factors, in which psychological factors belonging to endogenous factors and working environment factors belonging to exogenous factors are significant. Besides, in the past three years, the outbreak and popularity of COVID-19 accelerates formation of employees' smartphone addiction. The influence of smartphones addiction on employees had advantages and disadvantages while it is generally believed that the disadvantages, which have numerous negative effects on employees' physical and psychological health, personal life, family and job performance, outweigh the advantages. The mechanism of psychological smartphone addiction can be explained by job demand–resource theory and boundary theory. In the future, we still need to pay attention to the influencing mechanism of smartphone addiction and employees' job performance and figure out the key influencing factors, so as to amplify the advantages of using smartphones in the work scene and make smartphone serve to the target of improving job performance.","PeriodicalId":54013,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Human Resources Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43296369","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is the third amendment to the Trade Union Law since its promulgation in 1992. One of the highlights of this amendment is that it has adapted to the changes brought by the rapid development of China's digital economy in recent years in terms of enterprise organization, structure of the workforce, labor relations and employment patterns, recognizing the right of part-time employment groups to join and organize trade unions in this economic situation.
