The Chung-Hwa Post Co., LTD. has officially been transformed its organization from governmental into a private enterprise effectively since January 1, 2003. The management is facing great challenge of better utilizing their existing human resources in order to fight against the competition in the market. This research is intended to explore the relationship among human resource strategies, atypical employment and the organizational performance by using qualitative research method, sampling and intensively interviewing other six private enterprises and three national organizations based on the similar topics as in the co-related business items of postal delivery, banking and life insurance in the Chung-Hwa Post Co., LTD.
The finding of this research is that most of the private enterprises are focused on the core competency, and they integrate the human resource management strategies and the business management strategies, they put more effort on purchasing the outside existing manpower instead of hiring new manpower. The main reason of utilizing the atypical employment is based on the cost effectiveness, legal restrictions and the flexible management of human resources, and the enterprises are using more outsourcing and leasing types of the atypical employment, they also use part time workers to test that the workers are qualified as permanent staff after probation. Most interviewed enterprises are reluctant to use the contractors due to the legal restrictions.
Meanwhile, the enterprises use the outsourcing manpower for the purpose of transforming into professional enterprises. The quality of atypical employment has the specific correlations with organizational performance, for instance, the enhancement of the internal core competency. The role of the atypical employment is more used as the complements of the manpower. Nevertheless, when the enterprise is more computerized, the core jobs and the non-core jobs will gradually adjusted each other. The atypical workers will play the role as the substitutes of the existing workers. Another finding of the research is that the private enterprise is more willing to build up commissioned relations with higher ranking or professional people, they also intend to build up the partner relationship with the independent professionals to prevent them to be raided by other enterprises.
Nation-owned business entities take the privately owned business enterprises as the benchmark of the performance of labor force; they can also evaluate and justify the reasonable utilization of manpower.
