Abstract This study aimed to investigate the key factors of sustainability of hotel social responsibility from the effectiveness of the hotel intern training system. Using a mixed research method, a sample was first selected by purposive sampling, and 280 questionnaires were obtained by snowballing from September 2019 to February 2020. Using Statistical package for social sciences (SPSS, AMOS) IBM 22.0 software, the reliability of the questionnaires was confirmed by the CFA method, examined by Pearson Correlation Analysis, and then the opinions of hoteliers, experts, and senior employees on the questionnaire results were obtained by interview method and finally, the data were compiled and analyzed by multivariate verification. The study found that: Chinese hoteliers are unable to stabilize their employees' motivation and fulfill their internal social responsibility due to insufficient human resource training system, welfare benefits, job rotation mechanism, and poorly defined reward and punishment system. In order to stabilize the implementation of perfect internal corporate responsibilities for entrepreneurs, it is necessary to strengthen corporate culture promotion, improve the existing promotion system, increase employee benefits, and adjust the working environment and facilities. In this way, even in a harsh working environment, it can still increase employees' recognition of the company, improve work performance, and increase employees' willingness to stay.

People with multiple sclerosis experience some of the highest rates of unemployment among groups of individuals with severe and chronic disabilities. While unpredictable relapses, physical and cognitive symptoms all may play a role in job loss, it is more likely that job loss can be attributed to a complex interaction between disease-related factors and contextual factors, such as the working environment, and employer attitudes. This interaction leads to the concept of work instability, that is, the mismatch between work demands and the individual’s capacity to meet these demands. Vocational rehabilitation services aim to provide people with multiple sclerosis vocational assessment, rehabilitation and support to enable them to find, regain or remain in work and access other occupational and educational opportunities. Such services consist of a multidisciplinary team with the ability to provide education around disclosure, and work-place accommodations, offer emotional support, maintain work performance, liaise with employers, and support to re-enter the workplace. Helpful interventions include early disclosure, proper workplace accommodation, education of employers, and government-funded initiatives to support disabled employees. Future research needs to agree on methods of recording outcomes and evaluate specific vocational rehabilitation interventions.

Grit, as a positive psychological trait, could affect the stability of nursing workforce and nurses’ physical and mental health continuously. The Short Grit Scale (Grit-S) with fewer items than the original Grit Scale was widely used to measure individual trait-level grit. However, the psychological properties of Grit-S among Chinese nurses have not been verified. A self-designed sociodemographic questionnaire was used to investigate 709 Chinese nurses in the study, and Grit-S, Big Five Inventory-44, Brief Self-Control Scale, 10-item Connor-Davidson resilience scale, and Task Performance Scale were adopted to collect information of grit, personality, self-control, resilience, and work performance. The confirmatory factor analysis, Pearson correlation analysis, hierarchical regression analysis, and multi-group confirmatory factor analysis were conducted to verify the psychometric properties of the Grit-S. The results demonstrated that the Grit-S had sound validity and reliability among Chinese nurse samples and had good measurement invariance across nurses in general hospitals and psychiatric hospitals. The results of this study provide confidence in using the grit measurement among Chinese nurse in the future.
