This study aims to investigate how psychological safety impacts the levels of energy felt at work, and vice versa, whether energy acts as a mediator between psychological safety and the multiple dimensions of job embeddedness that include organizational, community fit, sacrifice and link.
The data had been gathered from 458 hotel employees with the help of a structured questionnaire consisting of established scales of psychological safety and energy at work and, additionally, job embeddedness. A set of statistical analyses, including confirmatory factor analysis and hypothesis testing, were used to test the validity and reliability of the measurement model.
The findings affect training and development practices in the hospitality industry. This is especially true for leadership development, resilience training and learning programs that promote psychological safety and help keep employees for the long term.
This study contributes to the existing literature by providing important information about the psychological and energetic factors that impact job embeddedness, which would contribute to enhanced employee satisfaction and organizational effectiveness in the hospitality industry.
