“…In the case of China, various service sectors, for example, banking, although thriving and continuing to grow (Cooke et al, 2019;Wang and Xu, 2017), is facing increasing competitive pressure, both globally and within China (Ali et al, 2019;Yang and Arthur, 2021). According to Sun et al (2015), banking firms mostly rely on employees' resources (e.g. skills, knowledge and talent).…”

PurposeThis study clarifies how intra-organizational social capital (IOSC) and unit-organizational ambidexterity (UOA), using resource-based view and dynamic capability theory, together support organizational value creation. While there is research in strategic human resource management (SHRM) exploring the role of resources and its uses, there remains limited understanding of how resources are linked and their effective utilization in the service sector. This study aims to examine the mediating process linking employee-experienced service-oriented high-performance work systems (SHPWS) experienced by employees and service performance by integrating IOSC and UOA.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses time lagged data from managers and employees of different branches of Chinese state-owned banks. To test the proposed hypotheses, path analysis was applied.FindingsThe path analysis results reveal that employee-experienced SHPWS is an important antecedent of service performance. Moreover, IOSC (as resources) and UOA (uses) strongly mediate the theorized relationship.Originality/valueThis study attempts to refine theory and practice with clearer, more insightful and coherent means to better understand and help unpack the ‘black box’ between SHPWS-performance relationships through a new linkage model.

“…National context produces institutional norms that can have important implications for management studies (Halme, et al, 2009)[2]. In line with China's leading economic status and increasing investment ties with the rest of the world (Luo, et al, 2010), there has been growing interest in the management context in China (Tsui et al, 2004;Sun et al, 2015;Friedman and Kuruvilla, 2015;Zhu et al, 2015). While these efforts reveal a wide range of macro-and micro-issues in Chinese management contexts, the dual Chinese employment systems, especially reflected between the public and private sectors, is currently misrepresented and neglected in the existing English management literature.…”

Purpose This paper aims to bring to the fore some neglected implications of the dual employment systems in China, especially for the public sector. Design/methodology/approach This paper reinterprets some recent developments in understanding Chinese employments and incorporates the relevant research in arguing for a dualistic view of employment in China[1]. Findings In highlighting the unique dualistic employment contexts in China and an indigenous phenomenon of “unequal pay for equal work”, this paper finds public management studies in China to deserve a separate platform for future research. Research limitations/implications Future Chinese management studies on public sector should contextualise their findings and conclusions, taking into account the employment structure at their research settings. More studies on the public sector are needed to better understand the dualistic Chinese employment relationships, especially for better public management policies and practices in China. Social implications It calls for more scholarly attention on the social injustice embedded in the dualistic employment in China. Originality/value It extends the ongoing discussions of Chinese employment reform and its implications on organising work and employment in China, while unveils important implications of the dualistic employment for future Chinese management research, especially in the public sector.
