Abstract

Employee assistance programmes (EAPs) are designed to provide organisational support to employees, which is increasingly critical to improving employees' well-being in the current macro and micro environment of pandemic and work pressure. Despite their potential significant role as part of human resource management (HRM), EAPs in China are under-researched. Drawing on academic and practical sources of literature in both English and Chinese, this review study sheds light on the current state of research and practice of EAPs in China. We examine why, what and how EAPs are adopted in organisations in China and highlight differences between the public and private sectors in their EAPs, as well as the role of Chinese culture and guanxi with leaders in the delivery of EAPs. We also point out research avenues to extend the research field both theoretically and thematically, including the role of artificial intelligence and digital technology as part of effective EAPs.

中国的员工援助计划:最先进的回顾和未来的研究议程
员工援助方案旨在向员工提供组织支持,在当前大流行病和工作压力大的宏观和微观环境中,这对改善员工福利越来越重要。尽管eap作为人力资源管理(HRM)的一部分具有潜在的重要作用,但其在中国的研究尚不充分。本文通过对学术文献和实践文献的回顾研究,揭示了当前中国环境干预研究和实践的现状。我们研究了在中国的组织中为什么、采用什么以及如何采用eap,并强调了公共部门和私营部门在eap方面的差异,以及中国文化和与领导人的关系在eap实施中的作用。我们还指出了从理论上和主题上扩展研究领域的研究途径,包括人工智能和数字技术作为有效的eap的一部分的作用。
