Abstract

This research aimed to investigate: 1) the impact of effective implementation of Strategic Human Resource Management (SHRM) on the organizational performance of Chinese hospitals, 2) the impact of employee engagement on the organizational performance of Chinese hospitals and 3) how comprehensive training and development strategies significantly impact the performance of Chinese hospitals. The study employed a purposive sampling method to select a sample group of 400 employees from Jinhua Hospital in China. Data were collected through structured questionnaires. Statistical analysis techniques included frequency distribution, percentage, mean, standard deviation, and regression analyses. The research results revealed three findings, as follows. Firstly, the hypothesis regarding the impact of SHRM implementation was not supported, as the coefficient for degree of SHRM Implementation was not significant (b=-.164, p=.002). Secondly, the hypothesis concerning employee engagement was supported, showing a significant positive relationship between employee engagement and the organizational performance of hospitals (b=.270, p=.000). Finally, the hypothesis regarding training and development strategies was not supported, as the coefficient for training and development strategies was not significant (b=.077, p=.099).
