Suppose that $G$ is a finite group and $H$ is a subgroup of $G$. We say that $H$ is s-semipermutable in $G$ if $HG_p = G_pH$ for any Sylow $p$-subgroup $G_p$ of $G$ with $(p, |H|) = 1$. We investigate the influence of s-semipermutable subgroups on the structure of finite groups. Some recent results are generalized.
