Design/methodology/approach With a quantitative approach, structural equation modeling was used to test the hypothesis. Data was collected with a survey method from 326 bankers of Pakistan. Data was diagnosed with all reliability and validity tests and significance was tested with bootstrapping. Smart-PLS software was used. Findings Results revealed that there is a partial mediating impact of employee resilience in the relationship of resilience-enhancing human resource practice and job satisfaction. For resilience-enhancing human resource practice and organizational commitment, employee resilience plays a partial mediating role. Research limitations/implications This study is confined to bankers only and a limited sample is used. However, it significantly provides a contextual base for further theoretical development in the research of employee resilience.

Understanding the relationship between an organization and the employees in that organization is of paramount importance for the success and future of that organization. This is related to the measurement of the organizational attitudes and behaviours of employees and the use of these attitudes and behaviours for forward-looking predictions. This being said, the aim of the study is to explore the relationship between the organizational identification levels of employees in ship agencies, and their job satisfaction and organizational commitment. For the purpose of this study, the data were obtained from 265 employees of different ship agencies in the cities of Istanbul and Kocaeli, Turkey, through questionnaire. The data then were analyzed via the structural equation modeling analyses, which were conducted using AMOS v22 by Bootstrap resampling with 5000 replications; the results have showed that organizational identification has both a positive direct and an indirect effect on organizational commitment, the latter through job satisfaction. Further, this study revealed that organizational identification, together with job satisfaction, explained about 0.59% of the variation in organizational commitment.

This study examined the effects of high-performance work practices on turnover intention through the mediating role of employee morale. The study also examined the extent to which psychological capital could moderate the relationship between employee morale and turnover intention. With the aid of questionnaire administration, the study collected 469 valid responses from frontline employees in the hospitality sector of Ghana. Findings from the hierarchical regression analysis showed that training and empowerment had a significant influence on turnover intention. Training and reward also had a significant positive effect on job satisfaction. Empowerment, on the other hand, had a significant positive influence on affective organizational commitment. Both affective organizational commitment and job satisfaction significantly influenced turnover intention. Optimism and resilience moderated the relationship between affective organizational commitment and turnover intention. Also, self-efficacy moderated the relationship between job satisfaction and turnover intention. The study offers some implications and suggestions for future studies in the main text.

This study developed and tested a model, which involves the effects of work–family conflicts on job satisfaction and job performance of construction professionals, with a focus on the mediating role of affective organizational commitment. A structured questionnaire survey was conducted among construction professionals in China, resulting in 317 valid responses. The results, generated from structural equation modelling, revealed two interrelated dimensions of work-family conflicts, work’s interfering with family life and family life’s interfering with work. We found these two types of work-family conflicts directly, negatively affected affective organizational commitments and job satisfaction but not job performance. Additionally, affective organizational commitment positively affected job satisfaction and job performance, and mediated the effects of work–family conflicts on job satisfaction. This study advances our understanding of how or why work–family conflicts produce dysfunctional effects on employees’ job outcomes in the context of construction projects.
