Abstract

This article addresses unexplored questions related to why and when employees’ experience of work overload might spur their knowledge hiding behaviour, in a process mediated by family-unfriendly time demands and moderated by a competitive organisational climate. Two-wave, time-lagged data, collected from employees in multiple industries, reveal that a notable reason that excessive work pressures escalate into enhanced knowledge hiding is that employees believe they have to put their jobs before their family lives. This mediating role of family-unfriendly time demands is particularly salient in the presence of performance-oriented organisational climates. For human resource managers, this research underscores a critical factor – the sense that employees have to sacrifice their family lives for work – through which excessive work pressures may lead employees to conceal valuable knowledge. It also reveals how this risk can be subdued by an organisational culture that avoids a strict focus on performance comparisons across employees.

竞争性组织环境下工作负荷对知识隐藏的不利影响
这篇文章解决了一些未被探索的问题,这些问题与员工超负荷工作的经历为何以及何时会刺激他们的知识隐藏行为有关,这一过程受到家庭不友好的时间需求的调节,并受到竞争激烈的组织环境的调节。从多个行业的员工中收集的两波滞后数据显示,过度的工作压力升级为知识隐藏的一个显著原因是,员工认为他们必须把工作放在家庭生活之前。在以绩效为导向的组织氛围中,这种对家庭不利的时间需求的中介作用尤为突出。对于人力资源经理来说,这项研究强调了一个关键因素——员工必须为工作牺牲家庭生活的感觉——过度的工作压力可能导致员工隐瞒有价值的知识。它还揭示了如何通过避免严格关注员工之间的绩效比较的组织文化来降低这种风险。
