Abstract (sommario):
The critical goal of this research study was to examine the effects of labour broking on employee morale at Superfert (Pvt) Ltd. A Case study design and quantitative and qualitative research methods were used. Questionnaires and interviews were administered to a sample of 43 casual employees hired from Headhunters Labour Brokers by Superfert (Pvt) Ltd and 2 key informants who were selected. A thematic approach was used to determine the effects of labour broking on employee morale. Data was analysed using the SSPS software and presented using tables and figures. The major findings from this research were that employee morale at Superfert (Pvt) Ltd was relatively low. The effects of labour broking on employee morale were found to be employee morale related problems such stress, headaches employee absenteeism; misunderstandings; high employee turnover; high organisational spending on employee recruitment and low productivity. However, there was no positive relationship between employee morale. Research findings showed that Superfert (Pvt) Ltd used the targets strategy and aggressive production approach for enhancing employee performance and the measures to address employee morale were unsatisfactory. The researcher therefore recommended that in improving employee morale and engagement labour brokers should identify the needs of employees such as effective monetary rewards and employee participation in decision-making and satisfy these needs; craft a clear communication framework or policy that minimize disruption and adverse effects on employee morale; conduct professional and occupational training to ensure that the employees have the required skills to complete their jobs. Labour brokers should also offer its employees permanent contracts that enables employees to plan for the future and there is need for government, and its line ministries such as Labour and Social Welfare in Zimbabwe, and other stakeholders to craft the code of conduct specifically for labour brokers and increase focus on tracking their conduct to protect employees from abuse.

Abstract (sommario):
Literature suggests that various workplace changes in private universities, such as technology, communication methods, employee transfers, work goals, marketing, and operational costs, are interconnected. In Kenyan private universities, up to 50% of the workforce merely performs expected tasks, with research indicating that 47% of employees spend most of their work hours on social media. Employee turnover is recorded at 43%, but the underlying cause of these issues remains unknown (Kariuki, N. & Makori, M., 2015). It is also unclear whether these changes significantly impact employee morale in Kenyan private universities. This study specifically examined the relationship between changes in work goals and employee morale in private universities in western Kenya. The conclusions could be beneficial to various stakeholders in Kenya's private universities. The study was based on Goal Setting Theory, Job Characteristic Theory and used a correlational research design, targeting 1,440 faculty and staff members across four selected universities. Stratified random sampling was employed to select a sample of 313 workers from different departments. Data was collected through questionnaires and analyzed using Excel and SPSS tools, with frequency tables and charts used for data presentation. The results indicated a negative relationship between changes in work goals and employee morale (β=-.678, p<.05), accounting for 46.0% of the variance in employee morale (R2=.460, p<.05). The study concluded that changes in work goals significantly affect employee morale and recommended that private universities prepare their employees in advance for such changes.

Abstract (sommario):
Research problem: The restructuring of an organisation can be classified as a transformational intervention (Litwin & Burke, 1992). As such is it has a potential to significantly influence key employee attitudes that are related to employee and organisational performance. Any deterioration in these attitudes could impact negatively on organisational outcomes. As part of the monitoring and review of change interventions, management needs to understand the change in employee attitudes towards their work and management in their business units and towards the broader organisation in order that, if necessary, corrective action can be taken. Research objectives: To address the research problem, research objectives and questions were established. The main objective of the study was to investigate whether there has been a change in attitudes of employees in two business units of a South African National Science Council after the implementation of restructuring in the organisation and the business units. The key attitudes to be measured are job and management satisfaction, perceived organisational support, organisational commitment and a dimension of employee engagement, dedication. Research questions: Four research questions were established and these were; What is the change in employee attitudes post-restructuring? In particular what is the change in employee job satisfaction; management satisfaction, employee engagement, commitment to the organisation and perceived organisational support? What is the relationship between the sub-groups, distinguished by gender, occupational level, race, home language, age, number of years of service and business unit, and employee attitudes pre-restructuring? What is the relationship between the sub-groups distinguished by gender, occupational level, race, home language, age, number of years of service and business unit, and employee attitudes post-restructuring? What is the relationship between the sub-groups distinguished by gender, occupational level, race, home language, age, number of years of service and business unit, and the change in employee attitudes pre and post-restructuring? Research design: The nature of this research is descriptive. In order to solve the research questions the researcher used a pre-test and post-test measurement of employee attitudes. A survey using a structured self-administered questionnaire was used to collect information regarding employee attitudes before and after the restructuring of the organisation and business units. Major findings: The results from the survey showed that there was a change in the levels of organisational commitment, job satisfaction and management satisfaction at the National Science Council after the restructuring had taken place. Also, the impact of the sub-groups in the organisation on affective factors was evident in the level of occupation and employee engagement, race and management satisfaction, the business unit and the levels of perceived organisational support, management satisfaction and employee engagement, home language and employee engagement, the number of years the employee had worked for the organisation and management satisfaction, age and job satisfaction and employee engagement.

Educational Administration
Ed.D.
This study examined the morale of fifteen teachers in a Mid Atlantic State Public School System after the implementation of restructuring per the corrective action continuum mandated by the No Child Left Behind federal legislation. Per the legislation, schools which fail to meet Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) for six consecutive years were required to select one of the suggested school restructuring options. These options were: replace most of the school personnel, including the principal; convert the school in to a charter school; release the control of the school to the state department of education; or contract the services of an outside agency to operate the school. The participants in this case study consisted of fifteen faculty members; five faculty members who remained at the study school, five faculty members who were displaced from the study school and five turnaround teachers who were newly assigned to the study school. As qualitative studies focus on `How' and `Why' questions, it was appropriate to utilize this type of framework as the researcher identified and explored how the morale of the faculty changed after the implementation of the restructuring process. The results of this study show only one of 15 of the study participants expressed that the implementation of the restructuring at the two study schools yielded a positive change in faculty morale. On the contrary, 14 of 15 study participants felt the restructuring process, as carried out in both study schools, had a negative impact on employee morale. Additionally, study participants indicted both study schools as having more of a positive climate prior to the implementation of restructuring as all of the interviewed subjects reported the restructuring process negatively impacted the student body, their parents and the entire school community.

Abstract (sommario):
Work breaks during an individual's shift can be a powerful motivational tool for management; however, not all individuals receive breaks during their shifts. The purpose of this phenomenological, qualitative study was to explore how work breaks affect employee morale and satisfaction in the casual and fine dining restaurant industry. The questions explored in this study were related to the breaks effect employee satisfaction and morale in the casual and fine dining restaurant industry. Thirteen participants with a minimum of 5 years' experience as wait staff who worked more than 6 hours per day were interviewed using semi structured interviews. The results were analyzed using a modified version of van Kaam's method and MAXqda software. The results suggested that breaks did not directly affect employee satisfaction and morale; however, management style directly affected employee satisfaction and morale. The results from this study may help managers have a better understanding of how their interactions and dealings with employees affect employee satisfaction and morale. This research may spur a field-changing management training, which could promote positive social change for employees.

Abstract (sommario):
The present study was undertaken to determine the effects that leadership training has on employees’ morale at work. The study was conducted on 15 students from three organisations within the Buffalo City area, studying towards a Diploma in Manufacturing Management at the Johnson & Johnson Leadership Development Institute, Rhodes University, East London Campus. The main aims of the study were: · to review the literature of the leadership training conducted at the Johnson & Johnson Leadership Development Institute (JJLDI), and to assess the effects it has on employees’ morale at work. · to provide industry with documented evidence that the leadership training conducted at the JJLDI has a positive influence on employees morale. · to provide the JJLDI with valuable information as to whether or not the course material and methods has a positive impact on meeting industry demands. A secondary objective of the study was to provide a medium in which students undergoing the leadership training were able to address their concerns with regard to course content and structure. Fieldwork comprised a 5-day, week (40 hours) of intensive lectures and group discussions at Rhodes University. Students were then assigned a 4-month workbased project with the lecturer acting as mentor to each student. The researcher used self- administered electronic questionnaires as the research tool. Results revealed the following: · that the students morale increased by more than 20 percent after having undergone leadership training; that the students communication skills has increased, and, · that the students interpersonal relations with co-workers has shown a significant increase Future implications are that students exposed to this type of leadership training will have a positive influence on their co-workers. This will spurn a new organisational culture that will cope with global demands. In some cases these future leaders will be the source of sustained competitive advantage over insurgents through increasing the organisation’s human, social and knowledge capital.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
Since employee motivation contributes to overall organisational success, reliable motivation theory should inform management and reward practices. Yet, motivation theory is currently in a state of paralysis, with no constructive theorising taking place. Analysis of its methodological presuppositions reveals that it relies on out-dated binary thinking, prioritising, e.g. either a ‘machine-like’ (body driven) or ‘god-like’ (rationally driven) understanding of humanity. In this study it is argued that the revival of motivation theory requires a paradigmatic shift towards a complexity methodology because human motivation was found to be a complex system and must be theorised accordingly. It was found that McAdams’ theory of personality which brought together personality traits, conditioning, and motives could form the basis of a complex theory of motivation. On this basis, a complex model was developed which incorporated elements of existing motivational theories. This model proposed that drives, which motivate behaviour, are a combination of instincts, needs, and desires, mediated by personality traits, rational processing, and conditioning. All of these interconnected elements, as well as biological and environmental conditions, have an impact on, and are influenced by one another. For the purposes of understanding employee motivation the element of desire was isolated as a potential means to value segment employees. A Lacanian theory was utilised to elaborate on the element of desire. This theory postulated that individuals tend to display a dominance is one of nine kinds and modes of desire. An instrument was developed to test the applicability of the Lacanian model. It was developed in five phases which included three pilot studies and two samplings. A total of 591 respondents participated in the empirical research study with 428 in the first sample and 70 in the second; the remaining 93 made up the pilot studies. Unlike the initial version of the instrument used in the first sample (n=428) the data obtained by the last version (n=70) revealed that the instrument held some form of reliability and validity. Once analysed through descriptive and inferential statistics the data supported the view that individuals tended to display dominance in a kind and mode of desire as per the Lacanian model, and sufficient variance existed to preliminarily conclude that this model could be used as a means to value segment employees. Recommendations were as follows: (1) that complexity methodology should inform future motivation theorising, (2) that the proposed complexity models be further empirically tested, (3) that an adequately complex, flexible rewards system be considered, (4) that both managers and employees make use of the developed instrument to aid them in the selection of rewards that will lead to increased satisfaction.

Abstract (sommario):
In the current business climate, performance is increasingly determined by how flexibly and effectively companies can utilize their human resources and this in tum, is influenced by employee morale. Morale refers to a state of psychosomatic health marked by an energetic, decisive resolution to achieve a given goal. When morale is low, employees may do what is required but do not have the energy to 'go the extra mile'. The importance of maintaining high morale is thus evident. The following project involved a study of morale in Cadbury's Port Elizabeth plant. Cadbury management was concerned about low morale following a recent merger with Bromor Foods. They thus wanted to assess: the state of current morale; any factors that may be influencing it; indicators of low morale (so that it may be monitored in the future) and finally, ways of addressing any existing morale issues. In order to achieve these aims, the researcher conducted interviews with various people to explore morale issues from employees' perspectives. She then sought confirmation for these views at the organizational level through the use of a survey. Statistical and thematic analyses showed morale to be low for middle managers and revealed a variety of indicators and influencing factors, as well as suggestions for addressing them. Despite the need to boost the sample size with convenience sampling, and thus, reduced representivity, the research was successful in answering the research aims.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract Since UAE has adopted a shorter workweek since the new year -2022, to align with global markets, many organizations have had to implement measures to adhere to this change. Sharjah National Oil Corporation has decided to provide their employees with multiples flexible weekend options to choose based on their convenience. A survey was conducted on the options provided to employees, for their feedback and effectiveness of this new change. The employees had been provided with 3 flexible weekend options containing all details regarding working hours, work schedule, effect on leave entitlement etc. These options were circulated to all employees, and a meeting was conducted to address any questions on the options provided. Employees adopted the new options and a survey was conducted to evaluate the Effectiveness of the new weekend policy and its impact on business and team performance after the 3-month mark. The survey questions were categorized based on employees personal, team and business perspectives. Employees were sent a link to complete the survey online regarding their feedback and evaluation A total of 86.5% of SNOC employees have participated in the survey, 13.5% of employees did not participate due to non-interest or absence from work. The results showed that 87.16% of employees are willing to stick with their current weekend selection for the remainder of 2022, 12.84% of employees wanted to change their option due to personal convenience and productivity levels. Majority of employees have agreed that employee morale has increased and work-life balance has improved based on the new weekend policy change. 87% of employees have agreed that there has been no negative impact on their "personal" work productivity and 74% of employees have agreed there is no negative impact on "team" productivity due to the weekend change. Only 7% of employees agreed that the new weekend policy caused disruptions in day-to-day communications with colleagues and 6% agreed there was a negative effect on communication with vendors and other business entities. Overall majority of employees have been positively impacted with the changes and agreed that the flexible options have provided them with more work life balance and has not impacted their work productivity. However, employees have remained neutral on the increase of employee engagement since the policy update. This paper helps to give better insight on how flexible weekend options can improve employees work life balance and productivity by giving them the flexibility to choose their own work schedule based on their convenience.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract The well-being of employees is catching momentum among various demanding industries across the world, underlying the importance of introducing and maintaining effective happiness initiatives to foster successful employees ’engagement with their line management to work better together and build loyalty to the workplace. This paper, therefore, aims to detail the strategic benefits of happiness initiatives along with the expected business benefits on long-term basis. A happy employee is defined as a productive and loyal employee. When an employee is happy, they tend to display greater engagement with their job. Similarly, studies have shown that when an individual feels "heard" and that their voice matters, their levels of morale are higher. Moreover, when equipped with the right tools to cope with a stressful environment, a worker's level of productivity and the quality of their work improves. The data collected at the end of each initiative is an important reference and resource for companies with a high number of employees across various specialties. This paper will provide the background of the importance of happiness initiatives, as well as making the first steps towards cultivating a culture of happiness in the more traditional industries, especially including the oil, gas and energy industry. The concept of a happiness initiative, especially in relation to international best practices, is currently not widely applied in traditional industries with evidence on the lack of a true sense of happy and productive engagement across different employees ’levels and contractors. Elevating happiness across organizations is, therefore, essential, as indicated by the fact that good mental health and well-being are core needs for any business to succeed in the post-COVID-19 era. Happiness at work is a relative, attainable concept that can be fostered and sustained in a more professional context, where organizations can play a vital and critical role in the research, establishment, and advancement of workplace happiness policies and frameworks on strategic basis that will positively result in tangible and non-tangible business benefits. This paper will outline mechanisms, best practices and the role of "Chief Happiness Officers" in leading tailor-made happiness initiatives to address organizational-specific needs and emerging issues.

Abstract (sommario):
This Research Insights paper challenges the assumption that ‘good’ listening behaviors are sufficient to make employees feel listened to (which we refer to as felt listening, i.e., the holistic perception of feeling listened to). In Study 1, using 133 qualitative critical incidents, we explored leader behaviors that make employees feel listened to (or not) when they speak up to leaders at work. In Study 2, in an experiment with 187 employees, we examined the role of leader responses to employee voice on employee perceptions of felt listening and how leader responses influence employees’ intentions to speak up again in the future. Overall, our findings augment some of the oft-given advice about how leaders should listen. We highlight four key findings: Action matters. Overwhelmingly, how leaders respond (by taking action or not taking action) surfaced consistently as a critical factor in whether employees feel listened to. It’s not just how well leaders listen – it’s what they do about what they hear. Leader responses influence whether employees feel listened to and if they will speak up again in the future. When leaders act on employee voice, employees feel listened to and are more likely to raise suggestions, concerns and ideas in the future. When leaders do not take action, employees do not feel listened to and are less likely to speak up again. Employee judgments of leader listening include longer term assessments of leader actions. Employees view listening as a relational process. Their retrospective perceptions of leader listening include both listening behaviors in the moment as well as later, longer term assessments about whether the leader took any action on what was voiced. Beyond action, leaders need to pay attention to demonstrating other listening ‘signals.’ If leaders want to elicit more employee voice but cannot act on the specific idea or suggestion, they need to send other signals. These can include validating employees, supporting or engaging with employee ideas and suggestions, endorsing ideas and concerns, and making time to listen.

Abstract (sommario):
This paper analyzes the reasons behind the low rates of contribution to social security programs in developing countries. Using a large set of harmonized household surveys from Latin America we compare contribution patterns among wage employees, for whom participation is compulsory, with contribution patterns among self-employed workers, for whom participation is often voluntary. In all countries, contribution rates among salaried workers are similarly correlated with education, earnings, size of the employer, household characteristics and age. In addition, contribution patterns among salaried workers are highly correlated with contribution patterns among the self-employed. Our results indicate that on average more than 30 percent of the explained within-country variance in contributions patterns may be accounted for by individuals low willingness to participate in old-age pension programs. Nonetheless, we also find evidence suggesting that some workers are rationed out of social security against their will.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
Self-collected data on public sector employees from eighteen Latin American countries reveal that employees trust in each other affects individual constraints, organizational constraints, and mission motivation. High-trust employees are i) more willing to collaborate and share information and are more supportive of innovation; ii) are less concerned with low staff quality or lack of discretion to innovate, and more concerned with staff shortages; and iii) have stronger mission motivation. A survey experiment on social distancing policies suggests that trust enhances mission motivation: employee preferences align better with the implied government policy when their trust in the public sector is higher.

Abstract (sommario):
Theory suggests that employee trust is key to productivity in organizations, but empirical evidence documenting links between trust and constraints on performance is scarce. This paper analyzes self-collected data on public sector employees from eighteen Latin American countries and finds that individual-level trust is relevant to three types of performance factors. First, high-trust employees are more willing to collaborate and share information with coworkers and are more supportive of technological innovation. Second, high-trust respondents have different perceptions of organizational constraints: they are less concerned with low staff quality or lack of discretion to innovate, and more concerned with staff shortages. Third, trust in coworkers is associated with stronger mission motivation. Instrumental variable strategies based on the transmission of trust through social and professional channels account for potential sources of endogeneity. A survey experiment on preferences for social distancing policies provides further evidence that trust enhances mission motivation: employee policy preferences align better with the implied government policy when their trust in the public sector is higher.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
Employment charters are voluntary initiatives that attempt to describe ‘good’ employment practices and to engage and recognise those employers that meet or aspire to meet these practices. They can operate at different spatial scales, ranging from international and national accreditation schemes to local charters that focus on engaging employers in specific regions or cities. The latter are the focus of this briefing paper. At least six city-regions in England had local employment charters at the time of our research. These areas alone account for over a fifth (21 per cent) of the resident working-age population (based on ONS 2022 population estimates), highlighting the potential reach and significance of these voluntary initiatives in terms of setting employment standards, although the number of employers directly accredited with local schemes is still relatively small. Despite their popularity with policymakers, there is only limited research on local employment charters. A few studies have explored issues relating to the design, implementation and evaluation of charters, reflecting demand from policymakers for toolkits and support to develop local policy initiatives (e.g. Crozier, 2022). But several years into the implementation of some of these charter initiatives, and as more areas look to develop their own, we argue that it is time to revisit some more foundational questions around what local charters are for, and how far they can support ‘good work’ agendas. It remains to be seen which employers can and will engage substantively with these initiatives, how employer commitments might be validated and the good employment criteria enforced, and how local charters will be integrated with local authority commissioning and procurement practices (TUC, 2022). The local charters that have emerged so far within the UK have been conceived predominantly as employer engagement tools, adopting language and approaches designed to appeal to employer interests and priorities and emphasising the value that employers can derive from being part of the initiative. This contrasts with approaches emphasising the engagement of other constituents, like citizens and employees, as a route to influencing employer engagement (Scott, Baylor and Spaulding, 2016; Johnson, Herman and Hughes, 2022). This briefing paper shares findings from a scoping study involving key informants in the North West of England (2022-2023) which explored how local charter initiatives could influence employers to improve their employment practices. Participants in the study shared their views on: 1) How voluntary local employment charters could influence employers to change their employment practices? 2) What types of employers local charters could engage and influence? Alongside this study, we have also developed a series of case studies of the charters that have been introduced across six city regions in England. These encompass the Fair Work Standard (London); Good Employment Charter (West of England); Good Work Pledge (North of Tyne Combined Authority); Fair Employment Charter (Liverpool City Region Combined Authority); Good Employment Charter (Greater Manchester) and the Fair Work Charter (West Yorkshire Combined Authority). The case studies are published separately. Our conversations with policymakers, union representatives and campaigners indicate that while there are some potential ‘win-win’ outcomes from promoting good employment practices, there are also some key tensions that should be more clearly acknowledged. In particular, one point of divergence relates to what would be the most effective and meaningful way to engage with employers in order to secure improvements in employment practices. On the one hand, employment charter initiatives could set consistent, clear and relatively high standards of practice that employers could be required to meet from the outset, creating a clear dividing line between those employers who were engaged in some way with the initiative and those who are not. On the other, these initiatives could prioritise engaging as many employers as possible with few or no specific red lines (e.g. around paying the living wage) so that the charter provides an opportunity to work with employers to secure hopefully more substantive commitments down the road. There are challenges and trade-offs associated with both of these viewpoints. One problem with the former strategy of setting a consistent standard is that the principles of employment that the charter promotes may not be particularly stretching in some sectors, or indeed may only describe a minimum set of commitments for certain types of work; whilst in other sectors they may be viewed as being too stringent. A more incremental, flexible strategy of engaging with employers and working with them to change their employment practices, in contrast, relies on sustained commitment from both policymakers and employers. Whether charters can simultaneously offer a ‘safe space’ to employers to share information and change their practices whilst also operating in a more regulatory way appears as a fundamental tension in existing visions for these initiatives. We return to these different views on how to engage employers and secure change in the conclusion to this paper.

Abstract (sommario):
This paper studies the effect of mandated employer-provided child care on the wages of women hired in large firms in Chile. We use a unique employer-employee database from the country's unemployment insurance (UI) system containing monthly information for all individuals that started a new contract between January 2005 and March 2013. We estimate the impact of the program using regression discontinuity design (RDD) exploiting the fact that child care provision is mandatory for all firms with 20 or more female workers. The results indicate that the monthly starting wages of the infra-marginal woman hired in a firm with 20 or more female workers is between 9 percent and 20 percent less than those of female workers hired by the same firm when no requirement of providing childcare was imposed.
