We argue that distributive justice may influence employees' job satisfaction through social exchange. Based on social exchange and organizational justice theories, we develop a moderated-mediation model of the psychological processes linking distributive justice and job satisfaction and test it on a sample of 101 employees working in 27 small non-profit organizations. Results of hierarchical regressions analyses provide support for the model. We found that distributive justice was positively related to job satisfaction and also that perceived organisational support mediates this relationship. We further found that group commitment moderated the relationship between perceived organisational support and job satisfaction and that this interaction effect, in turn, mediates the distributive justice job satisfaction relationship.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the underlying mechanism through which high-performance work system (HPWS) influences employee creativity. In addition, this paper aims to examine contingent factors in the relationship between perceived organisational support and employee creativity. Design/methodology/approach The sample of the study included 268 employees and matched supervisors from two pesticide chemical companies in China. Hypotheses were tested with linear regressions. Findings The study shows that HPWS enhances perceived organisational support, which in turn promotes employee creativity. Moreover, the results also indicate that devolved management positively moderates the relationship between perceived organisational support and employee creativity. Research limitations/implications The unique environment of China may limit the generalisability of the findings. Future studies can extend these findings by conducting studies in other societal contexts. Practical implications When trying to inspire employee creativity, organisations need to pay attention to employees’ perception of organisational support. One way of enhancing perceived organisational support is to implement HPWS. In addition, organisations need to encourage devolved management in order to inspire more creative behaviours. Originality/value This is the first study that explores the mediating role of perceived organisational support in the HPWS-employee creativity linkage. In addition, the study provides what is believed to be the first test of the moderating role of devolved management.

Orientation: The mechanism facilitating the development of organisational commitment and performance of citizenship behaviours is of research interest to scholars. Recent research trends suggest that job satisfaction can mediate the development of employee commitment and citizenship behaviours.Research purpose: The present study hypothesised that job satisfaction mediated the relationships between the predictors (perceived organisational support and protestant work ethics) and outcomes (organisational citizenship behaviours and organisational commitment).Motivation for the study: There is paucity of literature on the mediating influence of job satisfaction on predictors-outcomes linkages amongst agriculture workers in Nigeria. Available studies either examined the main effect of perceived organisational support on citizenship behaviours or the mediating influence of satisfaction on citizenship behaviours and not the proposed model.Research design, approach and method: The present study was survey-correlational in design. Data were obtained from 223 heterogeneous samples from different organisations (such as ministry of agriculture, parastatals, banks, private agro-allied companies, and insurance companies).Main findings: Results showed that job satisfaction fully mediated the relationship between perceived organisational support and citizenship behaviours and partially mediated the relationship between perceived organisational support and organisational commitment. Further, employee satisfaction partially mediated the relationships between protestant work ethics and citizenship behaviours and organisational commitment.Practical/managerial implications: This study indicated that both protestant work ethics and perceived organisational support are important in motivating employees to engage in cooperative behaviours and exhibit greater commitment through job satisfaction.Contribution/value-add: The present study showed that job satisfaction is a mediator linking both perceived organisational support and protestant work ethics to organisational commitment and citizenship behaviours.

AbstractWhile previous research has contributed to our understanding of the effect of person-organisation fit on a range of job outcomes (e.g., Chatman, 1989; Kristof-Brown & Jansen, 2007; Schneider, 1987), the relationship between person–organisation fit, perceived organisational support and job outcomes, such as job satisfaction and organisation commitment has not been fully explored. Further research examining the relationship between these variables is needed, particularly in organisational settings that experience high turnover such as hospitals. This study examined the relationship between person–organisation fit, perceived organisational support, job satisfaction and organisational commitment among employees in an Australian hospital setting. Person–organisation fit was assessed in terms of the fit, or congruence, between perceived organisational values and ideal organisational values. The study also examined the extent to which perceived organisational support moderated the relationship between person–organisation fit and job satisfaction and organisational commitment. Results showed that person–organisation fit and perceived organisational support were significant predictors of job satisfaction and organisational commitment. However, perceived organisational support was not a moderator in the relationship between person–organisation fit and job satisfaction and organisational commitment. Results also showed that perceived organisational support may be a stronger predictor of job satisfaction and organisational commitment than person–organisation fit, highlighting the importance of providing nursing and support staff with adequate support to carry out their work in hospital settings. The implications of the study are discussed and future research opportunities are highlighted.

Presenteeism is a hazardous behaviour that may have personal and organizational consequences. The main objective of this research was to investigate the relationship between presenteeism and job satisfaction and evaluate the role of overcommitment as a mediator and the role of work-related and personal bullying as moderators in these relationships. Results from 377 subjects showed that presenteeism and overcommitment are positively related to job satisfaction, with overcommitment being a mediator in the relationships. These relationships are moderated by work-related bullying but not by personal bullying. The findings are discussed, and implications, future research pathways, and limitations are noted.

Orientation: Today’s competitive work environment requires organisations and employees to successfully cope with challenges to maintain healthy levels of well-being. It is, therefore, imperative to investigate which organisational and psychological factors contribute to well-being in employees.Research purpose: This study served to analyse whether psychological capital (PsyCap) mediates the relationship between perceived organisational support (POS) and well-being.Motivation for the study: In light of the positive psychology movement, this study aimed to investigate how positive constructs actively contribute to employee well-being. Knowledge of organisational and psychological factors that enhance well-being in employees will be of great benefit to organisations that aim to create positivity in the workplace in order to avoid the negative consequences of work-related stress and a toxic work environment.Research approach/design and method: A cross-sectional, non-experimental design, applying convenience and snowball sampling, was used to recruit 159 South African employees who completed an online survey that assessed the constructs under investigation.Main findings: It was found that POS, PsyCap and well-being are positively correlated to one another. Moreover, hierarchical regression analyses revealed that PsyCap fully mediates the relationship between POS and well-being.Practical/managerial implications: These findings imply that organisations should be committed to target their employees’ PsyCap to enhance well-being in their workforce.Contribution/value-add: The findings show that it is not sufficient just to provide organisational support to enhance well-being. Organisations also need to acknowledge the important role of their employees’ PsyCap to ensure that they are well equipped to deal with challenges in the workplace while maintaining healthy levels of well-being.

Positive Effect

Previous studies mainly analysed the relationship between perceived organisational support and organisational commitment in a direct way. Limited studies of tourism, however, have found that job satisfaction is a mediator variable in the relationship between perceived organisational support and organisational commitment. The aim of this study is, (i) to analyse the effect of organisational support on job satisfaction, (ii) to analyse the effect of organisational support on the dimensions of organisational commitment, (iii) to analyse the effect of job satisfaction on the dimensions of organisational commitment, and (iv) to analyse the mediating effect of job satisfaction on the relationship between perceived organisational support and dimensions of organisational commitment based on an empirical study. The relationship between the variables was analysed by using a multivariate data analysis. Besides this, in the study, the mediating effect of job satisfaction on the relationship between perceived organisational support and the dimensions of organisational commitment was analysed by the technique recommended by Baron and Kenny (1986) and the Sobel test. The findings indicated that perceived organisational support had a significant positive effect on job satisfaction, affective, normative and continuous commitment. Job satisfaction had a significant positive effect on affective, normative and continuous commitment as well. Besides this, job satisfaction played a partial mediating role between perceived organisational support and dimensions of organisational commitment. Implications were presented for hotel managers who want to keep and encourage their employees to work in the hotel industry.

The precedents of creativity comprise an important research topic that could help organisations survive fierce competition. To contribute to the literature on creativity, the authors examined the roles of competence and perceived organisational support (POS) in the relationship between servant leadership and follower creative behaviour. The authors proposed and tested a moderated mediation model with data from leader-follower dyads collected in a Vietnamese engineering firm. The results showed that follower competence is a significant mediator of the relationship between servant leadership and follower creativity. Furthermore, POS has a moderated mediating role, such that the mediated relationship (i.e., servant leadership, competence, and creativity) is more salient under high POS than under low POS. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
