The Influence of Empowerment and Job Enrichment on Employee Loyalty in a Downsizing Environment
研究裁员后幸存员工中，管理授权行为和工作丰富化感知如何影响忠诚度，发现授权通过工作丰富化间接提升忠诚度，对管理者有实践指导。
Maintaining survivors’ loyalty in a downsizing environment is a difficult problem for management practitioners. Theorists have suggested that empowerment and job enrichment are mechanisms that allow survivors to cope with the stress of downsizing. This study examined the relationships between managerial empowerment behaviors, perceptions of job enrichment, and loyalty behaviors with employees who have survived downsizing in an organization. Results showed that empowerment does not have a direct effect on loyalty but affects loyalty indirectly through job enrichment. The results are discussed in terms of their implications for theory and practice.
