Influence of Blocking-Stressors on Post-90s Employees’ Occupational Mobility: The Chain Mediating Effect of Psychological Contracts and Negative Emotion

To clarify the mechanism of blocking-stressors,psychological contracts,and negative emotions on post-90s employees’occupational mobility,based on the literature study,a hypothetical model of the relationship was established.Using the blocking-stressor,psychological contract,negative emotion,and occupational mobility scales,317 post-90s employees were selected to investigate their status.It used correlation analysis and intermedi-ary effect tests to verify the hypothesis model.The results showed that:first,there were significant positive cor-relations between blocking-stressors,negative emotions,and occupational mobility,while indicating a significant negative correlation with the psychological contract;second,blocking-stressors can directly and significantly pre-dict occupational mobility;and third,blocking-stressors can indirectly affect occupational mobility through the mediating role of negative emotions and the chain-mediating role of psychological contracts and negative emo-tions.The effective intervention of blocking-stressors,psychological contracts,and negative emotions can reduce the rate of occupational mobility and provide some guidance for enterprises in making rational use of human resources.

Dynamics of occupational mobility:an empirical analysis based on headhunting data

This paper analyses occupational mobility in the labour market using survey data from a headhunting company.Four aspects of occupational mobility are discussed:the frequency of occupational mobility,cross-industry mobility,cross-ownership mobility and the influence of the macro economy on occupational mobility.The following are our findings:(1)educational level may insignificantly or negatively influence occupational mobility;(2)the younger generation is more active in the labour market;(3)although the public sector provides stable job opportunities,labour mobility in the first five years is not lower in the public sector than in the private sector;and(4)Party members are more frequently occupationally mobile.

The Social Composition of China's Private Entrepreneurs: Class and Cohort Differences

On the basis of survey data on Chinese private enterprises over the years,we try to respond to the classic subject of“the social composition of private entrepreneurs(siyingqiyezhu私营企业主).”In nearly forty years of development,the overall composition of private entrepreneurs has undergone major changes.The group contains a growing proportion of people who have a market background and higher education and are non-political CPCs.On further classifying the occupational mobility of private entrepreneurs into categories such as“xiahai下海”(jump into business),“gaizhi改制”(restructuring),“kuajie跨界”(crossover),“tiaoban跳板”(springboard)and“caogen草根”(grassroots),we find there are significant differences in the occupational mobility of entrepreneurs in large,medium,and small enterprises in terms of what they did before they founded their businesses.In particular,entrepreneurs in large enterprises are more likely to have“jumped into business”from inside the government system or after restructuring,while most small and medium entrepreneurs develop outside the system.Multiple regression and coefficient clustering analysis shows that education level and political status have varying effects on the occupational mobility of entrepreneurs in terms of class and cohort.
