Fakılar, Fatma Sinem
Even though a lot of research investigated what influence employee well-being, the role of resources hasn’t completely understood yet. The aim of the present study is to shed a light on what affects employee-well-being (i.e. flourishing) at work. Job security, worklife balance, and workplace civility were used as predictors which were proposed to be related to flourishing at work (FAW) via first, resource gain, then, psychological wellbeing (PWB). Furthermore, psychological capital was examined as a moderator that strengthens the relationship between resource gain and PWB. A hundred and sixty one full-time employees participated in the study. Results showed that among three predictors, only work-life balance was significantly related to resource gain. Moreover, resource gain was a significant predictor of PWB, and PWB was of FAW. According to mediation analysis, PWB was a significant mediator between resource gain and FAW. However, PsyCap was not a significant moderator for this association. As for the sequential model, only work-life balance was significantly associated to FAW via resource gain and PWB, relatively. All analyses were conducted on SPSS 22. Potential reasons of and future implications of the test results were discussed.
