Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted expatriates' work experiences, emphasizing the need to understand how organizations can mitigate negative consequences through meaningful support. However, a research gap exists regarding the association between perceived organizational support and cross-cultural psychological capital, creativity, and turnover intentions among expatriates during global crises. Drawing on the Social Exchange Theory and Conservation of Resource model, this quantitative study collected data from 314 expatriates in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia during the pandemic. Results revealed the significance of POS in reducing turnover intentions, fostering creativity, and enhancing cross-cultural psychological capital. These findings offer valuable recommendations for global organizations to fulfill their moral responsibility in providing meaningful support to expatriate employees during crises. Additionally, the study contributes to the literature on the impact of organizational support on expatriate outcomes amid uncertainty.

感知到的组织支持如何改善外派人员在全球危机中的结果?全球组织中道德组织氛围的中介作用
COVID-19 大流行严重影响了外派人员的工作经历,这强调了了解组织如何通过有意义的支持来减轻负面影响的必要性。然而,关于全球危机期间外派人员感知到的组织支持与跨文化心理资本、创造力和离职意向之间的关联,还存在研究空白。本定量研究以社会交换理论和资源保护模式为基础,收集了大流行病期间沙特阿拉伯王国 314 名外派人员的数据。研究结果表明,POS 在降低离职意愿、培养创造力和增强跨文化心理资本方面具有重要意义。这些发现为全球性组织履行其道德责任,在危机期间为外籍员工提供有意义的支持提供了宝贵的建议。此外,这项研究还为有关组织支持对外籍员工在不确定情况下的工作结果的影响的文献做出了贡献。
