    Supportive culture and job involvement in public sector: the mediating role of participation in decision making and organizational learning
    (Emerald Group Holdings Ltd., 2022) Kumar, P.K.; Saha, S.; Anand, A.
    Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine whether participation in decision-making (PDM) and organizational learning (OL) act as mediating factors in the relationship between supportive culture and job involvement. Design/methodology/approach: Data were collected from 712 employees working in different public sector undertakings (PSUs) across India. Necessary condition analysis (NCA) analysis and partial least square (PLS) analysis were used to test the proposed hypotheses. Findings: The findings of the present study indicated that PDM and OL act as a full mediator respectively in the relationship between supportive culture (SC) and job involvement (JI). The SC was positively and significantly related to PDM and OL. However, SL did not have a significant impact on JI. In addition, higher PDM and OL were found to be significantly impacting JI. Practical implications: The results suggest that PDM and OL facilitate the impact of SC on JI and may help organizations to retain their employees. The implications of these findings for all hierarchical levels in PSUs are discussed. Originality/value: OL and PDM as mediators between SC and JI have received very little attention from the context of India. The results add to the growing literature of culture from a non-western context as this study is based on Indian samples. This study has taken care to provide unbiased responses by utilizing data from employees working in various functional units of the organizations. © 2022, Emerald Publishing Limited.

    A green human resource management approach of participation in decision-making and behavioural outcomes – a moderated mediated model
    (Emerald Publishing, 2023) Kumar, S.P.; Saha, S.; Anand, A.
    Purpose: This study aims to assess the moderating and mediating role of supportive culture (SC) in the relationship between participation in decision-making (PDM) and job satisfaction (JS) and the dimensions of commitment, such as affective commitment (AC), normative commitment (NC) and continuance commitment (CC). Design/methodology/approach: Data were collected from 712 employees working in different public sector undertakings (PSUs) across India. Necessary condition analysis and partial least square analysis were used to test the proposed hypotheses. Findings: The findings of the present study indicated that SC is partially mediating the relationship between PDM and JS; PDM and AC. However, SC did not mediate the relationship between PDM and NC; PDM and CC. PDM was positively and significantly related to SC, JS, AC, NC and CC. JS had a significant impact on AC, NC and CC. It is highly desirable for organizations to retain their employees ranging from line managers to top management levels and provide opportunities for everyone to actively use their experience and expertise. Originality/value: The findings have implications for managers, as well as employees in PSUs, as they demonstrate how several work-related factors can be emphasized to maintain employees' commitment and motivation. Until now, India has paid scant attention to the role of SC as a mediator and moderator between PDM, JS and multiple commitments. This study cautiously collected responses from unbiased employees working in a variety of organizational functional units. © 2021, Emerald Publishing Limited.
