平台企业网约工心理契约的潜在类别与群体差异

为探讨平台企业与网约工之间的关系属性,基于心理契约理论及相关研究,开发了互联网平台企业网约工心理契约的结构化问卷。以网约车司机和网约配送员为调研对象,在15个城市获取367个样本数据,采用潜在类别分析技术(LCA)对平台企业网约工心理契约的潜在类型进行细分,分析平台企业网约工的心理契约差异。结果发现,网约工心理契约分为3种类型:低期望型、高期望型和随机期望型。3种心理契约类型在文化程度、工作类型、工作平台和工作感受4个指标上存在统计学上的显著差异。研究建议:平台企业要关注网约工的心理诉求,根据网约工的心理契约类型采取多元化雇佣模式;网约工要认识到网约工作的风险,做好经济契约和心理契约管理;政府部门要督促平台企业履行雇主责任与社会责任,保障网约工的基本劳动权益。
