Abstract

ABSTRACT Despite the serious consequences of exposure to workplace bullying for the wellbeing of individuals and functioning of organisations, few studies have investigated how organisational practices could reduce the negative impact of bullying on employee wellbeing. In the present study, we investigate the longitudinal association of exposure to workplace bullying with depressive symptoms and sleep problems, and whether high-involvement work practices (HIWP) and conflict management (CM) procedures moderate these associations. The data for the study were drawn from the Swedish Longitudinal Occupational Survey of Health (SLOSH). The final sample comprised 21,029 individuals with 45,678 person-observations from 4 waves. Longitudinal multilevel models (with study waves nested under individuals) showed that exposure to workplace bullying increased depressive symptoms and sleep problems. Furthermore, both HIWPs and CM procedures were moderators of the association between exposure to bullying and depressive symptoms and sleep problems. The results support previous findings, suggesting that workplace bullying has severe consequences for subsequent wellbeing. Moreover, it extends previous research by showing that organisational practices, such as high-involvement work practices and collaborative conflict management procedures, may act as organisational resources that buffer the negative effects of exposure to bullying on wellbeing.

高介入工作实践和冲突管理程序作为工作场所欺凌-幸福感关系的调节因子

摘要尽管暴露在工作场所的欺凌会对个人的健康和组织的运作产生严重后果，但很少有研究调查组织实践如何减少欺凌对员工健康的负面影响。在本研究中，我们调查了暴露于工作场所欺凌与抑郁症状和睡眠问题的纵向关联，以及高参与工作实践（HIWP）和冲突管理（CM）程序是否调节了这些关联。该研究的数据来自瑞典职业健康纵向调查（SLOSH）。最终样本包括21029人，其中45678人从4个波浪中观察到。纵向多水平模型（研究波嵌套在个体下）表明，暴露于职场欺凌会增加抑郁症状和睡眠问题。此外，HIWP和CM程序都是暴露于欺凌、抑郁症状和睡眠问题之间关系的调节因子。研究结果支持了之前的研究结果，表明职场欺凌对随后的幸福感有严重影响。此外，它扩展了之前的研究，表明组织实践，如高参与度的工作实践和协作冲突管理程序，可能会作为组织资源，缓冲暴露于欺凌对幸福感的负面影响。

期刊介绍： Work & Stress is an international, multidisciplinary quarterly presenting high-quality papers concerned with the psychological, social and organizational aspects of occupational health and well-being, and stress and safety management. It is published in association with the European Academy of Occupational Health Psychology. The journal publishes empirical reports, scholarly reviews and theoretical papers. It is directed at occupational health psychologists, work and organizational psychologists, those involved with organizational development, and all concerned with the interplay of work, health and organisations. Research published in Work & Stress relates psychologically salient features of the work environment to their psychological, behavioural and health consequences, focusing on the underlying psychological processes. The journal has become a natural home for research on the work-family interface, social relations at work (including topics such as bullying and conflict at work, leadership and organizational support), workplace interventions and reorganizations, and dimensions and outcomes of worker stress and well-being. Such dimensions and outcomes, both positive and negative, include stress, burnout, sickness absence, work motivation, work engagement and work performance. Of course, submissions addressing other topics in occupational health psychology are also welcomed.
