Nowadays, guarantee enterprises in China, have great requirements for high quality and ability of the business personnel, but the labor market cannot supply enough talented guarantee people, and this phenomenon highlights the importance and urgency for the guarantee enterprises to provide business personnel training programs. This paper uses the principal-agent theory to explain the incentive-restricted mechanism of preventing department managers’ moral hazard under the real condition of information asymmetry, and verify the validity of theory model of mathematical analysis through an empirical research.
