| Abstract | As the Sino-US trade war gradually intensifies, more and more Chinese companies are investing and producing in Thailand. As one of the largest economies in Southeast Asia, Thailand has a unique geographical location and a superior investment environment. However, in the process of landing in Thailand, Chinese companies must also face management challenges due to the significant differences between China and Thailand in culture and market. Therefore, many subsidiaries of Chinese manufacturing companies in Thailand face problems of low employee loyalty and high turnover. For Thai subsidiaries of Chinese multinational companies, cultivating localized talents is more important for improving the company's competitiveness and sustainable development. Therefore, it is crucial to understand the factors that affect the loyalty of local employees. This study will focus on a subsidiary of a Chinese cemented carbide company in the WHA Industrial Park in Chonburi, Thailand, and analyze the impact of three factors, namely work environment, salary and benefits, and leadership style, on employee loyalty. The current case company has 178 employees, mainly produces cemented carbide products, has many machines and equipment, and multiple cemented carbide production lines. This paper is based on the research results of predecessors and related theoretical foundations and takes the case company as the research object. This study determined the meaning and content of each variable in the study through a large number of literatures references and determined the content and method of the questionnaire. This study conducted a questionnaire survey on all employees of the case company, and finally collected 161 valid questionnaires. Through regression analysis of the questionnaire data, it was determined that the work environment and leadership style of the case company had a positive impact on employee loyalty, and salary and benefits had no significant impact on employee loyalty. Based on the survey analysis results and references, this study provides improvement directions for how the case company can improve its work environment and leadership style to help the case company improve employee loyalty. |
