“…Joshi (2004)'s study on the upgrading of India's industrial structure shows that the development of the tertiary industry promotes employment and has a positive poverty reduction effect. For the same study in India, Mitra & Schmid (2008) reached the same conclusion. Ravallion & Chen (2005) showed that the growth of three industries had certain effects on poverty alleviation, among which the primary industry had the largest effect and the tertiary industry had the second.…”

This paper selected the household income grouping data of China's urban and rural areas, respectively, calculated the urban and rural poverty lines with the ELES method, calculated the FGT index with the POVCAL software of the world bank, and constructed the VAR model to make an empirical analysis of the mechanism between industrial structure upgrading and the effect of urban and rural poverty reduction. The results show that the upgrading of industrial structure has a significant effect on poverty reduction in urban areas, but has little effect on poverty reduction in rural areas. Therefore, in the process of formulating and implementing poverty reduction policies in China in the future, we should pay attention to the differences between towns and rural areas and constantly improve the national poverty reduction governance system.

Purpose Indian banking industry is one the biggest players in the country’s service sector, with public sector banks (PSBs) occupying the major share. The purpose of this paper is to develop a model linking job characteristics (JC) and work engagement, moderated by perceived organizational and supervisor support as contextual variables. Design/methodology/approach Data on 214 employees from 15 PSBs were used to examine this model. Analysis of data has established the moderating role of support at work in the relationship between JC and work engagement. Findings Findings suggest that employees who have a positive perception of organizational and supervisor support are more likely to respond positively to JC and therefore would have a higher propensity to engage with their jobs. In addition to enriched jobs, the wider organizational climate characterized by support from supervisors and organization as a whole is critical to establish a positive environment, which would lead to greater work engagement. Originality/value The moderating role of support at workplace on JC and work engagement has been researched very rarely in literature. This study, hence, aims at investigating whether interaction between JC and perceived organizational and supervisor support influences work engagement of employees working in Indian PSBs.
