ABSTRACT

The third case study was conducted at ElectroCo, a private-owned enterprise (POE), or more precisely, a partnership POE but registered as both a collective-owned and foreign-invested enterprise. This case study adopts the same framework as the other ones. The overview of POEs in China focuses on the resurrection and upsurge of POEs following the post-Mao reforms, their major features and subsequent impact on HR practices. The data collection process for this research is in the next section, which presents background information on ElectroCo and its current HR practices. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the findings from this case study with respect to the research questions.
