Managerial Pro-Social Rule Breaking (MPSRB) is a prevalent leadership behavior in China, characterized by conflict between favor and rule. Despite emerging interest in this behavior, two theoretical questions remain unsolved. First, its definition, dimensions, and measurement in the Chinese context are still lacking or improper; second, its double-edged sword effect on employees’ attitude is rarely empirically examined. This paper conducts three studies to solve these questions. In study 1, based on an analysis of the Chinese traditional culture, three dimensions of MPSRB (i.e., benevolence-based, pragmatic-based, and justice-based) were identified. In study 2, a scale of MPSRB containing 12 items was developed through an interview, preliminary, and formal questionnaire survey. In study 3, employees’ sustainable organizational identification perception (SOIDP) was studied as the dependent variable, to analyze and verify the double-edged sword effect of MPSRB by hierarchical regression and structural equation modeling (SEM) methods on the data gathered through the three stages from 380 employees. The results show that the three dimensions of MPSRB have a direct positive impact on employees’ SOIDP and, simultaneously, they have an indirect negative impact through the mediating role of procedural justice perception.

Coal mining has become one of the most dangerous industries in the industrial sector, whose safety problem must be solved urgently. This paper is about the application and research of Behavior-based Safety management method in the coal mining enterprises. Taking Wangzhuang coal mine as an example, the paper carries out a comparative study of the unsafe behavior and psychology of coal miners before and after the implementation of BBS. In terms of the unsafe behavior, the paper has made a 12 weeks long BBS observation and recording study on coal miners, and comparatively analyzes the recorded for weekly average value of safety behavior index and the key behavior. In respect of unsafe psychology, the paper takes the current questionnaire about the miners' unsafe psychology, and takes Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation to evaluate the questionnaire results of two times to compare the level By comparing the data of coal miners' unsafe behavior and psychology, it is verified that the implementation of BBS is quite effective to reduce the incidence of accidents of coal miners.
