The research uses data from two national sample surveys in 2007and 2017.It analyzes the situation of employee participation in China,ard tends to conclude that the situationof employee participation in China shows a continuous improvement trend,while opportunities of employee participation are increasing,their participation rights are also increased,and the utilization rate in various participation channels has also increased significantly. In contrast, the situation of non-institutionalized participation has shown a weakening trend. Therefore,the improvement in participation is mainly reflected in the participation in the labor process, that is mainly to promote the improvement of labor efficiency or organizational performance. The improvement ofemployee participation,in particularthat of participation opportunities and areas of participation,is conduciveto enhancing employees' job recognition and reducing their willingness toparticipate in non-institutionalization.
