This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regardless of the job market situation, there is always a certain level of voluntary employee withdrawal - lateness, absence, avoidance of work, undue socializing - that affects the well being of the organization. This volume explores the various manifestations of employee withdrawal, how they may be assessed, and identifies relevant antecedents and moderators, attitudinal as well as behavioral. The authors have focused on issues such as national culture and perceptions of absence legitimacy, components of voluntary employee turnover, the role of performance management process in employee withdrawal behavior, and current controversies concerning the withdrawal phenomenon. In addition, some creative perspectives on changing information technology, the taxonomy of lateness behavior, and the association between smoking and absenteeism are offered.
Download or read book Organizational Withdrawl and Organizational Citizenship Behavior A Comparison of Volunteer Workers to Paid Employees written by Roxanne Marie Laczo and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The differences in organizational commitment, job satisfaction, organizational withdrawal, and organizational citizenship behavior were examined in paid employees and volunteers working in the same organization. Consistent with expectation, volunteers exhibited lower levels of organizational withdrawal than employees. Contrary to expectation, volunteer workers exhibited only slightly higher levels of organizational commitment than paid employees. Also contrary to expectation, volunteer workers exhibited substantially lower levels of organizational citizenship behavior and higher levels if intra-group coworker satisfaction than paid employees. Inter-group perceptions of coworkers contributed to the prediction of job withdrawal only. Overall, the results suggest that for both volunteer workers and paid employees, the enactment of different classes of negative and positive non-workrole behaviors depend on different attitudinal variables.
Download or read book Job Satisfaction written by C. J. Cranny and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this era of frequent corporate restructuring and rapid technological change, successful companies must have employees who are open to innovation and to changing roles, and are able to work together productively. Research shows that employees most likely to be adaptable, cooperative, and productive are those who are satisfied with their jobs. Therefore, it is essential that leaders of American business understand how to enhance job satisfaction within their organizations. In Job Satisfaction, top academic researchers in the field share state-of-the-art information on creating job satisfaction, its resulting benefits, and the risks of having too many employees who are dissatisfied with their jobs. As they show, job satisfaction is also an extremely useful predictor for management. An employee's level of job satisfaction is the single most important piece of data a manager or organizational psychologist can have to predict an employee's rate of absenteeism, decision to resign or retire, desire for union representation, or level of psychological withdrawal. Before they can enhance job satisfaction, managers must understand its components. Research demonstrates that an employee's level of satisfaction is based not only on events in the present and past, but also on his perceptions of the future. Foreseeing future opportunities for advancement, for increased pay, for participation in decision-making, or for networking lead to a high level of job satisfaction. In fact, the authors reveal, perceiving future opportunity can actually be more motivating than actually receiving a raise, getting promoted, or being given additional responsibilities. Job Satisfaction dispels the notion that jobstress necessarily leads to dissatisfaction, and shows how an organization should focus on increasing satisfaction rather than just reducing stress. It is especially important for managers to stimulate job satisfaction by improving their employees' sense of achievement through making tasks and their objectives clear, as well as giving feedback. Academics and managers alike will find Job Satisfaction a source of new and useful information for understanding and enhancing satisfaction on the job.

Book excerpt: This study is an exploration of the impact that social contexts in the work environment have on previously well-established relationships of work attitudes (job satisfaction and affective organizational commitment) predicting turnover intention. The work attitude-turnover intention relationships are based on the Withdrawal Model, which is the framework for this study. However, one criticism of the Withdrawal Model is that it does not take into account the social context (work environment) in which employees operate when ultimately making a decision about if they want to leave a particular job or organization. As a result, a study of social context influences would help fill this gap in the literature. Social context in this study will be operationalized as department-level organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) norms and store-level civility norms. These two variables will be examined as cross-level moderators of the relationship between individuallevel job attitudes and turnover intention described in the Withdrawal Model. It is hypothesized that the individual-level, negative relationships of job satisfaction and affective commitment on turnover intention will be strongest when OCB norms are low and when civility norms are low. Conversely, it is hypothesized that when the OCB and civility norms are high, the individual-level relationships will be weaker. The sample used to test these hypotheses is an archival dataset. Data were collected as part of an organization-wide survey that was distributed to all non-manager employees at a chain of local grocery stores in the eastern United States. Participation was voluntary in nature and resulted in responses from 950 employees working in 384 unique departments inside of 53 store locations. To account for the hierarchical nature of the dataset, analyses were conducted using multilevel modeling (MLM). Individual-level direct effects on turnover intention were found to be significant for job satisfaction and affective commitment. These findings support the Withdrawal Model in a multilevel model. None of the moderating interaction effects tested were found to be significant. Results did not support the hypothesis that social contexts moderate the individual job attitude to turnover intention relationships. Some results suggest that social contexts may have a direct effect on turnover intention over and above the effects of work attitudes. Future research is needed to explore if these findings persist in other samples. Additional suggestions for future research include testing the effects of social contexts in other samples and/or testing using a mediated model.
