- Abstract
Labor employment has been changing with the reform of the economic system. As a flexible and elastic mode of employment, atypical employment has been widely used all over the world. Based on the data from the World Bank surveying 12,400 Chinese enterprises in 2005, we find that atypical employees have a big gap with typical employees in wages and benefits but higher mobility. By exploring the causes of enterprises hiring atypical employees, we find that labor cost, overtime, labor supply, and the form of corporate ownership all have an influence on the option of corporate employment.
