The idea of happiness is related to individual’s subjective well-being. Happiness at the workplace is crucial for improving productivity in any organization. Happy people are productive people while those people who are unhappy may not pay full attention to any task. Some scholars believe that organizations which are able to maintain long-term happiness at the workplace could probably increase and sustain productivity. Therefore, they should know what factors could affect employee happiness in order to effectively enhance happiness at the workplace. But research on employee happiness was rarely seen in the past. The issue of happiness at the workplace needs to be properly conceptualized so that useful research on it could be conducted.

  • Why Happiness Matters in Your Workforce and Beyond 1
    Why Happiness Matters in Your Workforce and Beyond 1 Introduction Happiness is a vague expression that is an umbrella term for many different types of positive emotional responses within an organization. But the science of happiness1 is not vague. Empirical research finds that employees who report that they are happy at work are able to be more creative, adapt better to change initiatives, solve problems faster, receive faster promotions and better feedback and earn more money over the course of their careers. By making employee happiness…a priority, leaders are better able to meet the needs of their employees while enjoying numerous critical benefits. Employers who understand their company culture and have resources and strategies in place to track the essential components for success are able to implement the solutions that promote happiness at work. This helps them avoid the mistakes2 that undermine an effective culture. By making employee happiness within the organization a priority, leaders are better able to meet the needs of their employees while enjoying numerous critical benefits. 1 http://blogs.wsj.com/source/2011/09/18/the-five-drivers-of-happiness-at-work/ 2 http://3bigmistakes.corevalues.com/ Why Happiness Matters in your Workforce and Beyond www.corevalues.com Copyright © TIGERS Success Series, Inc. 2 Problem Unhappiness in the workplace may seem like miniscule problem when compared to other, more pressing problems. Unhappy and disengaged employees, however, actually cost U.S. businesses $450 billion to $550 billion a year because of lost productivity, according to a Gallup report3. These numbers are staggering. As a result, leaders who take note and begin assessing the levels of unhappiness within their workplaces will reap productivity rewards among several other benefits.

It impacts just about every business metric we have, from customer service to productivity to profitability. It is the key to retention because employees don’t want to leave a great culture. It is the key to recruitment because applicants are clamoring to get in. Intel, which is renowned for its iconic culture, has a turnover rate of only 2% and Google gets an estimated 7,000 unsolicited Intel, which is renowned for its applications for jobs every day. iconic culture, has a turnover rate But let’s face it, the culture we have isn’t always the of only 2% and Google gets culture we want.

The study is purely based on secondary data and its analysis. Several points of view are being researched: positive, negative and no correlation between the happiness of the employee and the performance of the company. Moreover, other factors that might have an impact of both variables were taken into account. The findings showed that the topic is very complex and there was no direct correlation found between the variable, however, it was inevitable that there is a link between them, as some studies even assumed a possibility of indirect correlation.

    sustainability Article The Impact of Job Insecurity on Employee Happiness at Work: A Case of Robotised Production Line Operators in Furniture Industry in Lithuania Živile˙ Stankeviˇciut¯ e˙ * , Egle˙ Staniškiene˙ and Joana Ramanauskaite˙ School of Economics and Business, Kaunas University of Technology, LT-44249 Kaunas, Lithuania; [email protected] (E.S.); [email protected] (J.R.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +370-650-11-505 Abstract: As a result of intensive robotisation over the past decade, employees have been constantly experiencing job insecurity, a term which refers to the perceived threat of job loss and the worries related to this threat. Previous studies have supported the detrimental effect of job insecurity on employees; however, the focus on happiness at work is still missing, despite the notion that a happy employee is essentially contributing to sustainable business performance. Trying to narrow the gap, the paper aims at revealing the linkage between job insecurity and happiness at work and its dimensions, namely job satisfaction, affective organisational commitment, and work engagement. Building on the hindrance stressor dimension of the stress model, and conservation of resources and psychological contract theories, the paper claims that a negative relationship exists between the constructs. Quantitative data were collected in a survey of robotised production line operators working in the furniture sector in Lithuania. As predicted, the results revealed that job insecurity Citation: Stankeviˇciut¯ e,˙ Ž.; had a negative impact on happiness at work as a higher-order construct and all of its dimensions.
