Well-Being and Mental Health of Employees

Dear Colleagues,

Employee satisfaction and well-being lead to many beneficial outcomes at work, such as increased performance, creativity, and productivity; organizational citizenship behaviors; and a lowered intention to quit the organization. 

It is essential to identify the psychosocial factors relevant to workers' satisfaction and mental health to create work environments and appropriate employee relationship approaches that improve worker well-being.

Authors interested in psychosocial predictors of employees' mental health and well-being from the perspective of existing organizational theories such as leader–member exchange and others are encouraged to submit papers.

Besides papers exploring the relationship between supervisor and subordinates, we are also interested in those investigating workplace spirituality with an emphasis on meaning at work, values, connection to a "higher power", and coworkers.

Additionally, we encourage papers covering the effect of work–life balance and organizational commitment on employee well-being as well as those looking at potential harmful factors, such as job burnout.
