Abstract Based on the practice of Chinese trade union reform, this study collects the trade union news reports from the People’s Daily and relevant journal literature from 1949 to 2020, extracts the institutional logic of Chinese trade union by adopting the procedural grounded theory methods, and analyzes the local characteristics and internal operational rules in the Chinese trade union reform process by exploring the interaction and evolution of institutional logic. The results are as follows. Firstly, Chinese trade union follow social governance logic, employee service logic and enterprise management logic, which differ in goal orientation, action basis, legitimacy, and humanity assumptions. Secondly, these three logics run through the whole process of Chinese trade union reform, and jointly promote the reform going through the following 3 stages: the dominance of social governance logic→the competition of social governance logic and employee service logic→the balance and integration of multiple institutional logics, which is characterized by complexity and dynamic. Finally, the organizational structure and management system of Chinese trade union are constrained by institutional inertia, which leads to the hysteresis that the evolution of internal logic always lags behind the change of external institutional environment.
