企业履行社会责任会提高员工幸福感吗?——基于归因理论的视角

Will Corporate Social Responsibility Improve Employee Well-being:A Role of Attribution Theory

本研究基于归因理论提出并检验了企业社会责任(corporate social responsibility,CSR)通过CSR利他归因对员工幸福感产生影响的假设,同时检验了员工企业伦理态度在其中的调节作用。基于40家企业共329份有效样本的跨层研究发现:CSR对员工幸福感有显著的正向影响,并被CSR利他归因中介;同时,相对于那些认为企业经营不需要考虑道德因素的员工,认为需要考虑道德因素的员工对CSR的利他归因更高,相应的幸福感也更高。基于归因理论提出的研究模型和假设,加深了对于CSR如何能带来积极影响的心理过程的理解。此外,基于研究结论提出了几点重要的管理启示。

This paper develops and tests the hypothesis that corporate social responsibility(CSR)has an effect on employee well-being through CSR altruistic attribution.Also we test the moderating effect of employee business ethic attitude in this model.40 companies and329 employees are used as samples.The results show that CSR is positively related to employee well-being via CSR altruistic attribution and that employee business ethic attitude moderates the relationship between CSR and CSR altruistic attribution.More specifically,compared to those who hold the attitude that enterprises should not pay attention to business ethics,CSR is much more positively related to CSR altruistic attribution and employee well-being when employees hold the attitude that enterprises should pay attention to business ethics.The relationship between CSR and employee work-related well-being has not yet been empirically tested,nor has the mechanism of CSR altruistic attribution been explored.So the present study has important theoretical contributions.A few relevant practical implications are also provided based on the conclusion.
