One of the most widely researched personal resources is job crafting, for which several studies have confirmed the existence of a positive relationship with engagement. Some authors suggest that it would be necessary to go deeper into the mechanisms that can help us explain this relationship. Therefore, the aim of this study is to ascertain the possible influence of the meaning of work on the relationship between job crafting and engagement. The sample is composed of 814 workers (50.4% women) with an average age of 41.68 years (SD = 9.78). The results were obtained by simple mediation analysis using PROCESS. The meaning of work mediates the relationship between job crafting and engagement, this influence being especially significant in the case of cognitive crafting. This study confirms the positive relationship between job crafting and engagement. However, in the case of some types of job crafting, increased levels of engagement only occur if the individuals also manage to increase the levels of meaning attributed to the work role. Therefore, in order to improve the well-being levels of working people, it would also be necessary to help them understand how these changes help them to attribute more meaning to their work.
工作重塑是研究最多的个人资源之一，已有多项研究证实其与工作投入之间存在积极关系。一些作者认为，有必要深入研究能够帮助我们解释这种关系的机制。因此，本研究旨在确定工作意义对工作重塑与工作投入之间关系的可能影响。样本由 814 名员工（50.4%为女性）组成，平均年龄为 41.68 岁（SD=9.78）。使用 PROCESS 进行简单中介分析得出了结果。工作意义在工作重塑与工作投入之间起中介作用，认知重塑的影响尤其显著。本研究证实了工作重塑与工作投入之间的积极关系。然而，在某些类型的工作重塑中，只有当个体设法增加赋予工作角色的意义水平时，工作投入水平才会提高。因此，为了提高工作人群的幸福感水平，还需要帮助他们了解这些变化如何帮助他们赋予工作更多的意义。
