An Empirical Research On The Multidimensional Construct Model Of Decent Work For New-generation Employees In Enterprises

As the new generation employees have gradually become the main force of labormarket and the important strength supporting development of enterprises, the researchof new generation employees’ decent work becomes increasingly important. Theunique personality, work values and behavior characteristics of new generationemployees determine that they have different requirements about their work content,work form and the internal relationships in enterprise, as well as the understanding ofdecent work. Previous studies barely involve how to understand the new generationemployees’ decent work and what factors will maximize the achievement of the newgeneration employees’ decent work. Therefore, based on the literature review andin-depth understanding of the concept of decent work, it is of great significance thatwe build the multidimensional construct model of new generation employees’ decentwork to better implement their decent work.This paper makes a review of the relevant theories and literatures, including theconnotation, measurement, empirical research of decent work, and the definition,characteristics, management of the new generation employees. Then we analyze theaffecting factors to build the multidimensional construct model of new generationemployees’ decent work. At the beginning, the paper establishes a set of elementsabout the new generation employees’ decent work, as much as possible to cover allkinds of relevant elements. On the basis of the primary elements set, the paper usesexpert consultation and preliminary investigation to develop the new generationemployees’ decent work questionnaire. According to the valid questionnaires, thepaper carries out the descriptive analysis, EFA and CFA to empirically confirm thedimensions of the multidimensional construct model. On the basis of empirical resultswe have analyzed, the paper revises the multidimensional construct model of newgeneration employees’ decent work, and gets the final model including6dimensionswhich are the basic working rights, fair and reasonable compensation, good trainingsystem, the equality and dignity at work, work life balance and representation right.Based on the results of empirical research, the paper puts forward severalmanagerial recommendations that the enterprise should pay more attention to thework and representation rights of new generation employees, establishing the trainingand development system for the new generation employees, and focusing on thespiritual pursuit and work life balance of the new generation employees.
