Description
Summary:Employee well-being has become a growing concern in organizational research, particularly in the context of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). This study aims to model the impact of psychosocial variables on well-being within the CSR framework, integrating both risk factors and protective organizational resources. The analysis is based on data from the European Working Conditions Telephone Survey (EWCTS) 2021, using a sample of 71,758 employees across 37 European countries. The empirical approach uses Tobit regression models to examine how job demands, work-related stress, and telework negatively affect well-being, while organizational commitment, participation in decision-making, and workplace trust contribute positively. Results confirm that workload is the strongest negative predictor, whereas engagement and organizational trust play a crucial role in mitigating its effects. Findings highlight the need for CSR strategies that balance job demands with organizational resources to foster healthier work environments. Future research should explore longitudinal data and incorporate objective well-being indicators, such as economic and physical well-being, for a more comprehensive assessment.
