Nowadays, China’s economy is witnessing a rapid development and our society is in a new period, which we call transformation period. If the organizations want to be developping in this special period, they have to keep treating the employees as the main competitive strength. The organizations should more understand their employees, pay more attention to them and use them more reasonably. The development takes with the fierce competition and the increase of working pressure. Workplace deviant behavior is the damage which is harmful to organizations’and employees’interests. How to reduce workplace deviant behavior is an very important thing to organizations. Corruption and bribery cases are more than 35,000 pieces during 2014-2015. Organizations have the employees who harm public property deliberately, show up late and leave early.The best way to let the employees do the right things for organizations and decrease the incidence rate of workplace deviant behavior is to make employees feeling like owners. The society changes, people changes, and this phenomenon needs organizations pay more attention. Organizations should make the relationship between organizations and employees more unitively and closely.
