The reason for writting Before the change of the tissue environment, the strong development of science and technology, the explosion of information technology as well as the globalization process has put businesses in front of immense challenges.
The reconstructed magnetite appeared in 2005 when the economy fell into a state of depression with incidents related to defective bubbles and certificates due to the expansion of monetary policy in the direction of running into these 2 markets. In the face of many business problems with restructuring, many studies are conducted with the approach of restructuring to improve the performance of the business. In fact, since the 2000s, many of the world's businesses have faced a significant threat to their survival, due to their continually declining productivity, declining profits, and declining competitive position globally. Businesses have had to overcome the situation through widespread restructuring and expansion, this trend is labeled as restructuring through reducing the size of the company and other resources such as finance and human resources.
This situation has become more serious since the Covid- 19 pandemic. After the pandemic, the economy entered a recession, a series of companies and businesses had to restructure their apparatus and resources. Prominent in that is the issue of personnel reduction, personnel restructuring in the enterprise. Google, Twitter, Boeing.
are not on the list when it comes to cutting thousands of jobs. In Vietnam, according to a survey of Facebook social network published on May 7, 2021, as of April 2021, up to 40% of small and medium enterprises in Vietnam had to cut staff, of which more than 27% of enterprises had to let all employees go. Foreign-invested enterprises, supplying to foreign markets, 10 are most seriously affected by Covid-19 due to the lack of orders from abroad. From there, businesses have to massively cut personnel to avoid losing financial resources.
The layoff wave continues to grow strongly, not only in production but also in all fields. In particular, there is a seemingly sustainable and stable field that cannot escape the “layoff” - the information technology industry. Walking around the Linkedin news feed, a slew of layoffs, green “open to work” statuses enveloped the social network. This wave of layoffs shows that businesses in the information technology sector are also suffering the impact of the economic downturn and are forced to restructure personnel to salvage the situation.
Recognizing the urgency of the restructuring of corporate personnel, especially enterprises in the field of information technology, I chose the topic "Research on factors affecting personnel restructuring in information technology industry". Through this topic, I want to study the restructuring situation of enterprises today, point out the factors affecting the restructuring of personnel and thereby propose some models and solutions to limit negative consequences from the restructuring of personnel in enterprises in the field of information technology in particular and Vietnamese enterprises in general. Research goals Assessing the situation of personnel reduction and restructuring in Vietnamese enterprises in general and enterprises in the information technology industry in particular. Identify the factors affecting the decision to cut personnel of IT enterprises.
Thereby offering an analytical model and 11 proposing some effective restructuring solutions, minimizing negative impacts on workers and businesses. Research mission To achieve the set objectives of the topic, the following tasks should be completed: e Overview of related research works and development of theoretical framework e Study the situation of restructuring in enterprises around the world, Vietnam in general and enterprises in the field of information technology in particular. e Identify and study the factors affecting the decision to cut staff at IT enterprises. e Analyze the causes, positive and negative consequences of personnel restructuring.
e Build a model to prove that the assumptions made are correct. e Provide some solutions to minimize risks in the process of restructuring personnel. Research questions e Factors affecting the decision to reduce personnel at enterprises in the information technology industry? e How do these factors affect the decision to reduce personnel at enterprises in the information technology industry? 12 4.
