Abstract
Based on self-determination theory and the proactive motivation model, we explore the effects of family motivation on proactivity among blue-collar employees. By referring to a sample of 588 blue-collar employees from one Chinese company and a three-wave and leader-follower dyad design, we find that family motivation promotes the likelihood of proactivity through psychological meaningfulness. In addition, family-supportive supervisor behaviors strengthen the relationship between family motivation and psychological meaningfulness, and also strengthen the indirect relationship between family motivation and proactivity via psychological meaningfulness. Our study provides a comprehensive insight to understand the relationship between family motivation and proactivity among blue-collar employees with practical implications for human resource management.
