After the implementation of information system will bring a series of changes to the enterprise, the staff’s work content and business processes will also change. Based on the theory of job embeddedness and social network, this study focuses on relationship between employee’s behavior and job performance after the implementation of information system. The job embeddedness will affect the employee performance. And the implementation of information system will bring more information exchange among employees, it will form lots of networks, and staff embedded in relationship between these networks will affect the work performance. Besides, there are three dimensions of job embeddedness: job connection, job fit and job sacrifice. Job performance is divided into two dimensions: task performance and relationship performance. The purpose of this paper is to study the relationship between job embeddedness and job performance, and to explore the regulate effect of relationship embeddedness between job embeddedness and job performance.
