Unethical pro-supervisor behavior and employees' family satisfaction: The roles of workplace ostracism and work-home
1Business School, University of International Business and Economics, 100029 Beijing, China.
Abstract:
The present study proposes a moderated mediation model that examines how and when unethical pro-supervisor behavior is related to employees' family satisfaction. The two-wave study design consisted of 207 full-time employees in China. The study results indicate that unethical pro-supervisor behavior is negatively related to family satisfaction, and that workplace ostracism mediates the influence of unethical pro-supervisor behavior on family satisfaction. In addition, the relationship between workplace ostracism and family satisfaction as well as the indirect influence of unethical pro-supervisor behavior on family satisfaction through workplace ostracism, are moderated by employees' work-home segmentation preference. The study findings not only enrich the literature on unethical pro-supervisor behavior, but also have important practical implications for organizational managers.
