We examined the mediating role of work engagement in predicting organizational citizenship behavior and counterproductive work behavior. The 227 participants were employees of 2 major retail banks in China, who completed a survey. The results showed that both turnover intention and work engagement were significantly correlated with organizational citizenship behavior and counterproductive work behavior. Results of structural equation modeling indicated that work engagement partially mediated both the turnover intention–organizational citizenship behavior relationship and the turnover intention–counterproductive work behavior relationship. These results extend prior findings and shed light on how turnover intention affects organizational citizenship behavior and counterproductive work behavior. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

PurposeThis study aims to investigate the effects of transformational and transactional leaders’ behaviors on employees’ affective commitment and organizational citizenship behavior in the context of nonprofit organizations (NPOs). Additionally, this study attempts to examine the role of work engagement, as an intervening mechanism as work engagement in NPOs has been empirically neglected (Park et al., 2018).Design/methodology/approachData were conducted from 400 employees working in Italian NPOs in the North of Italy. For verifying the hypotheses of this study, structural equation modeling techniques were implemented.FindingsIt was found that both transformational and transactional leaderships influenced positively affective commitment and organizational citizenship behavior, and work engagement was revealed to have significant positive mediating effects on the relationship between the variables examined in this study.Practical implicationsThe results of this study may be beneficial to leaders and supervisors of NPOs, specifically regarding the influence of the leaders’ behaviors on the employees’ outcomes.Originality/valueDue to the limited number of studies conducted on leadership in nonprofit organizations, this study theoretically and empirically contributes to the leadership literature as it is the first study to investigate the two styles of leadership on work-related outcomes via work engagement in the nonprofit sector.

In this study we explored the role of organizational justice as a mediator between conscientiousness and organizational citizenship behavior. Longitudinal data were collected from 241 doctors and nurses employed in 11 Chinese hospitals. Structural equation modeling analysis results showed that the participants' perceptions of organizational justice significantly mediated the relationships between conscientiousness and the 5 dimensions of organizational citizenship behavior.

This study aims to analyze the role of job satisfaction in mediating the influence of situational leadership and career development on organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) of BLU employees of the Marine and Fisheries Business Capital Management Institution (LPMUKP). This research was conducted from September 2019 to March 2020 at BLU LPMUKP. The research method used a quantitative approach, the population in this study were all BLU LPMUKP employees totaling 294 employees consisting of permanent and temporary employees. The sample used in this study were permanent employees of 81 respondents using saturated sampling technique. The data collection techniques using interviews and questionnaire instruments. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) with the Smart PLS 3.2.7 software program. The results of this study indicate that situational leadership and career development have a positive and significant effect on organizational citizenship behavior. Meanwhile, job satisfaction is no more effective in mediating situational leadership and career development on organizational citizenship behavior as without mediation of situational leadership and career development would greatly affect organizational citizenship behavior in BLU LPMUKP.

<p><em>The aims of this study are to explore a number of antecedents that affect the organizational citizenship behavior. The antecedent of organizational citizenship behavior is transformational leadership while affective commitment serves as a mediation variable. The respondents in this research are lecturers at private universities in Special Province of Yogyakarta Province. The number of samples used is 145 respondents by using purposive sampling. The analytical technique used in this study is Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). Based on the analysis, the influence of transformational leadership on the behavior of organizational citizenship is positively significant while transformational leadership to the affective commitment has significant positive effects, and the same also for affective commitment to behavior organizational citizenship which has a significant positive effect. The results of this study explain the phenomenon of organizational citizenship behavior among the lecturers which is increasingly demanding profession. The role of transformational leadership and affective commitment of lecturers are also becoming increasingly important.</em></p>

Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) is a behavior performed by an individual or employee voluntarily helping each other without expecting an award or reward from the organization or company. This study aims to investigate the role of spirituality in the workplace and job characteristics on job satisfaction and Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCBIP), especially in organizations that are not affiliated with Islam. The sample of this research is 122 respondents of BLU UPTD Trans Semarang employees and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results indicate that in an organizational environment that is not based on Islam,, spirituality in the workplace and job characteristics have a positive effect on job satisfaction and OCBIP.

Traditionally, scientific- and practitioner-oriented publications tend to categorize employees in groups of either “good” or “bad” employees, thereby omitting that one category of employees might engage in organizational citizenship behavior (OCB-O) and counterproductive work behavior (CWB-O). In this study, we concurrently examine the mediating role of moral credits and credentials, as well as the moderating role of subjective temporal focus. Specifically, we argue that when employees enact OCB-O, they obtain moral credits and credentials, which in turn might make employees more likely to enact CWB-O. Moreover, we argue that the latter relationships depend on an employee’s subjective temporal focus, resulting in an OCB-O—CWB-O relationship that is (1) positive for a past temporal focus, (2) negative for a future temporal focus, and (3) non-significant for a present temporal focus. We examined these hypotheses by means of a multilevel weekly survey study and largely found support for our hypotheses, especially with regard to the role of moral credentials as the mediating mechanism and the aggravating versus attenuating effect of past versus future temporal focus, respectively. We end with a discussion on implications, suggestions for future research, and recommendations for practice.

Turnover intention has become one of the most serious issues in organizations around the world. Hence, most organizations encourage family-friendly practices (FFPs) to retain employees and to reduce high turnover risk. A plethora of research has confirmed FFPs as a fruitful predictor of turnover intention. However, what is not yet known is whether FFPs directly influence turnover intention or indirectly through organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). To fill the gap, the present study examined the effect of FFPs on employees’ intention to quit. On top of that, the mediating role of OCB in the purported link was also examined. Data were collected from 338 health sector employees using a structured questionnaire. The results of the structural equation modeling using AMOS indicated a significant negative relationship between FFPs and employees’ intention to quit. Moreover, OCB negatively influences employees’ intention to quit and partially mediates the path between family-friendly practices and intention to quit. Based on theoretical and empirical evidence, this study advances existing knowledge and further understanding of organizational work practices. This study recommends that organizations should encourage FFPs to mitigate turnover rate among employees.
