The aim of this research was to identify characteristics of employees who are willing to work in Mainland China voluntarily. To test hypotheses, we conducted a questionnaire survey among Taiwanese full-time employees in industries that have promising opportunities to enter markets in Mainland China, namely financial services, electronic information technology, and manufacturing. A total of 598 participants returned usable responses making the valid response rate 87.94%. The results showed that employees who were unmarried, holding managerial positions and those who had less work experiences would be more willing to work in Mainland China voluntarily. Furthermore, employees who had stronger expatriate career commitment and higher cultural intelligence had stronger self-initiated expatriate willingness. Finally, organizational support could strengthen the relationship between expatriate career commitment and selfinitiated expatriate willingness. |
