Cover Story: In this article, Roster and Ferrari describe a study designed to investigate if the perception of having control over time mitigates the negative outcomes of emotional exhaustion arising from heavy workload demands and time pressures among office workers. Results obtained from a survey conducted with 365 US office workers indicate that higher perceived control of time reduces emotional exhaustion, as long as workers utilize time effectively and avoid procrastinatory behaviors. This is the first study to incorporate variables associated with time management into a moderated-mediation model predicated on theories of control associated with the buffering hypothesis in the traditional job demands-control model (JDC).
