In last few decades, employees’ job related attitudes and behaviors have remained topics of considerable interest in the fields of organizational behavior and human resource management. This study aims to explore the impact of person-organization-fit and person-job-fit on employee turnover intention while considering psychological climate as a mediating variable. Sample for this research is consisted of 260 employees from top five commercial banks of large cities of Pakistan. SPSS 17 is used for analyzing the data. Correlation and regression analysis is used to test the direct and mediating relationship between key variables. Results indicate that both person-organization-fit and person-job-fit have negative relationship with turnover intention. Psychological climate partially mediates the relationship between person-organization-fit and turnover intention while fully mediates the relationship between person-job-fit and turnover intention.

For new hires, receiving support from their supervisor is critical for familiarizing themselves with their job and engaging it as soon as possible. The aim of this paper is to explore the influencing mechanism of person-supervisor fit(PSF) on the work engagement(WE) of new hires as well as the mediating role of person-organization fit(POF) and person-job fit(PJF). Five hundred new hires were selected through cluster sampling, and asked to fill out questionnaires measuring PSF, POF, PJF, and WE. In total, 486 questionnaires were valid. The study found that PSF positively influenced new hires’ WE. This positive impact was fully realized through the two mediation paths of POF and PJF. Therefore, a two-mediation model was established. PSF was highly important to the WE of new hires, but this effect was fully realized through the indirect paths of POF and PJF.

Abstract This study examined the operation of resources as a mechanism underlying the relationship between career adaptability and career satisfaction. Based on career construction theory and conservation of resources theory, we examined the interactive effects of career adaptability, career satisfaction, person–job fit, and job uncertainty. The results of two-wave data collection from 234 full-time workers revealed that employees with stronger career adaptability were more likely to report career satisfaction. The full mediating effect was found of person–job fit. Specifically, we found that career adaptability enhances person–job fit, which results in greater career satisfaction. Additional analysis revealed that job uncertainty interferes with the mediation model. We identified a new antecedent of career satisfaction (i.e., person–job fit) and revealed the functional mechanism underlying the effect of this antecedent. This study provides novel insights valuable to the field of career management.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of localized human resource management (LHRM) on host country nationals’ (HCNs) intention to remain (ITR) and extra-role performance (ERP) through the mediating role of person-organization fit (POF). Design/methodology/approach Data were gathered from 494 employees in two Chinese subsidiaries in Iran via two-stage self-administered survey and analyzed with AMOS 21. Findings The results show that LHRM positively affected employees’ ITR and ERP. However, there was no significant relationship between LHRM and POF and between POF and ERP. Originality/value Previous studies in the international human resource management literature have focused more on Western and South Asian countries. The present study, to the best of our knowledge, is the first inquiry of its kind in an Iranian context. Hence, this paper contributes to the existing knowledge by testing LHRM in two large Chinese multinational companies in Iran. Additionally, the results of this study will increase our understanding of LHRM and provide practitioners with superior insights into some practices that could elevate HCNs’ ERP and ITR.

Purpose- The primary purpose of the study is to determine the impact of organizational justice (OJ) on employee sustainability. Along with that, it also describes how organizational commitment mediates this direct relationship. This study includes all dimensions of OJ which are distributive, procedural and interactional (interpersonal & informational) within the context of a developing country (Pakistan). Design/Methodology- This study has considered employees working in the banking sector of Pakistan. Two hundred ten questionnaires were received back from employees. Regression analysis was used to analyze direct relationships between variables, while smart partial least squares (PLS) were used for mediation analysis. Findings- Results demonstrated that all hypothesis were accepted and it was also confirmed that organizational commitment (OC) mediates the direct relationship between OJ and employee sustainability (ES). Originality/value- Multidimensional construct of organizational justice was tested in this study, in the context of a developing country (Pakistan), to address the research gap.

This study aims to investigate the impact of parental career behaviors on undergraduate student’s career exploration and the mediating role of career self-efficacy. In the literature it is suggested that some social and individual factors facilitate students’ career exploration. Therefore, parental career behaviors and career self-efficacy is considered as predictors of student’s career exploration attitudes within the scope of the study. In this respect, data which are collected from 405 undergraduate students having an education on tourism and hotel management field by the survey method are analyzed by using the structural equation modeling. The results of the study indicate that parental career behaviors which are addressed support; interference and lack of engagement have a significant effect on student’s career exploration behaviors such as intended-systematic exploration, environment exploration and self-exploration. In addition, it has been found that one of the dimensions of parental career behaviors addressed as a lack of engagement has a significant effect on career self-efficacy levels of students. However, research results indicate that student’s career self-efficacy has a significant effect on only the self-exploration dimension. On the other hand, career self-efficacy has a partial mediating role between lack of engagement attitudes of parents and career exploration behaviors of students.
