Correlates of Employee Attitudes Toward Functional Flexibility
基于3044名公共服务员工的问卷数据,研究发现员工对职能灵活性的负面态度与低外在满意度、感知奖励公平性不足、低组织承诺和年龄弱相关,而工作范围和传记变量(除年龄外)无显著预测作用。
Public service employees (3044) completed a questionnaire seeking information on their expectations regarding a proposal to increase their functional flexibility. It was proposed that beliefs concerning the unfavorability of outcomes of the intervention would be correlated with a range of biographical, affective, and job content variables. Multivariate analyses revealed that the scope of an employees' existing job and biographical variables (apart from age) were not generally predictive of attitudes to functional flexibility. Rather, unfavorable attitudes were weakly associated with low levels of extrinsic satisfaction, perceived reward equity, aspiration organizational commitment, and age. The implications of these findings for work and skills restructuring interventions and organizational change in general are discussed.
