工作场所乐趣对时间侵占行为的影响研究:情绪耗竭的中介作用

The Effects of Workplace Fun on Time Encroachment Behavior:The Mediating Role of Emotional Exhaustion

工作场所乐趣有助于营造宽松的工作氛围,并给员工带来各种乐趣体验。已有工作场所乐趣的研究主要关注了工作场所乐趣带来的积极作用,缺乏对员工负面影响的分析和检验。通过两个实证研究,验证了工作场所乐趣、情绪耗竭和时间侵占行为之间的关系。研究一和研究二分别采用184份和200份数据,得出情绪耗竭与时间侵占行为呈显著正相关,情绪耗竭在工作场所乐趣与时间侵占行为之间起中介作用的相同结论;不同的是研究一得出工作场所乐趣与情绪耗竭和时间侵占行为呈显著正相关,而研究二得出工作场所乐趣与上述两个变量呈显著负相关。对此从样本获取方式、变量可能存在曲线关系以及存在调节变量三个方面进行了分析和讨论,并提出了相应的管理对策。从组织方面来讲,要重视工作场所乐趣带来的影响、营造松紧相宜的组织文化和对员工的时间侵占行为进行监管;从员工方面来讲,要加强对企业制度的学习,增加工作的投入以减少情绪耗竭,还需要积极融入环境,不勉为其难参加乐趣活动。

Workplace fun contributes to creating a relaxed work atmosphere and provides employees with various enjoyable experiences.Existing research has primarily focused on the positive effects of workplace fun,lacking an analysis of its negative impact.This paper,through two empirical studies,uses 184 and 200 data sets to examine the relationship between workplace fun,emotional exhaustion,and time banditry behavior.Both studies find out a significant positive correlation between emotional exhaustion and time encroachment behavior and emotional exhaustion mediates the relationship between workplace fun and time encroachment behavior.However,the difference lies in the study No.one,which finds out a significant positive correlation between workplace fun and emotional exhaustion as well as time encroachment behavior,while the study No.two finds out a significant negative correlation between workplace fun and these two variables.We provide discussion of these contrast findings mentioned above on three aspects:the method of obtaining samples,the potential existence of curvilinear relationships between variables,and the potential presence of moderator variables.We also offer corresponding management strategies.For organizations,they should emphasize the negative impact of workplace fun,the cultivation of a balanced organizational culture,and the monitoring of time encroachment behavior.For employees,it is important to stress the understanding of corporate systems,increasing work engagement to reduce emotional exhaustion,and actively integrating into the work environment,and willingly participating in fun activities.
