How Leadership Can Help to Mitigate the Dark Side of Autonomy: Results Based on the German Sample of the European Working Conditions SurveyDate submitted: December 23, 2019Date accepted after double-blind review: March 3, 2021
Structural changes in the world of work are accompanied by changes in work content and working conditions, such as an increase in autonomy with respect to work tasks, working time and workplace. It is assumed that these aspects have a positive effect on health and satisfaction at work, but they may also blurry the boundaries of work and private lives and lead to self-endangering work behaviour. As leadership behaviour is particularly important for the safety and health of employees, we assume that it can also help to mitigate possible harmful effects of autonomy. Based on data from the European Working Conditions Survey, we found that working time autonomy and working from home are positively associated with temporal boundarylessness. The construct mediates the association between working from home and unfavourable health outcomes. With respect to working time autonomy, it only mediates the relationship with both health outcomes when constructive leadership is low. Thus, the two autonomy facets can be beneficial but might also deteriorate employees’ health by blurring the boundaries between private and work lives. In supporting employees by means of respect and guidance orientation and supporting employees, leaders can mitigate potentially detrimental effects of working time autonomy.
期刊介绍:
Management Revue - Socio-Economic Studies is an interdisciplinary European journal that undergoes peer review. It publishes qualitative and quantitative work, along with purely theoretical papers, contributing to the study of management, organization, and industrial relations. The journal welcomes contributions from various disciplines, including business and public administration, organizational behavior, economics, sociology, and psychology. Regular features include reviews of books relevant to management and organization studies.
Special issues provide a unique perspective on specific research fields. Organized by selected guest editors, each special issue includes at least two overview articles from leaders in the field, along with at least three new empirical papers and up to ten book reviews related to the topic.
The journal aims to offer in-depth insights into selected research topics, presenting potentially controversial perspectives, new theoretical insights, valuable empirical analysis, and brief reviews of key publications. Its objective is to establish Management Revue - Socio-Economic Studies as a top-quality symposium journal for the international academic community.
