Public Talk by Prof. Elaine Hui (24 Apr 2025)

Prof. Elaine Hui, an Associate Professor of Labor and Employment Relations at Penn State University, USA, and an alumnus of SGPS gave a talk to our current and incoming students this morning.

Prof. Hui presented insights from her in-depth case study on one prominent Chinese multinational corporation (MNC). This discussion explored the complex relationship between MNCs and labor rights, highlighting how these corporations navigated labor relations in the US. Prof. Hui’s research suggested that MNCs utilized various strategies, including adaptation, negotiation, and dictation, to influence labor practices.

The talk provided valuable perspectives for all participants interested in internation

al business and labor rights. We extend our gratitude to Prof. Hui for her valuable sharing!
