The present study sought to apply an intersectional lens in predicting decent work (i.e., work that meets minimum standards for supporting worker dignity and livelihood). With a racially diverse sample of 302 women workers, we tested a moderated mediation model predicting decent work from economic constraints, experiences of sexism, experiences of racism, and the interaction of racism and sexism. Following psychology of working theory (PWT), we positioned work volition and career adaptability as mediators. Main effects were consistent with previous PWT theory and research, indicating that experiences of sexism and racism were important direct and indirect predictors of decent work. Interaction effects indicated that the interaction of sexism and racism predicted work volition and that the indirect effect of sexism on decent work was stronger at higher levels of racism. Results have implications for policymakers and practitioners seeking to support women across racial backgrounds in securing decent work. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved).
本研究旨在运用交叉视角来预测体面工作（即符合支持工人尊严和生计的最低标准的工作）。我们对 302 名不同种族的女性工人进行了研究，检验了一个从经济限制、性别歧视经历、种族主义经历以及种族主义和性别歧视的相互作用来预测体面工作的调节中介模型。根据工作心理学理论（PWT），我们将工作意愿和职业适应性定位为中介变量。主要效应与之前的 PWT 理论和研究一致，表明性别歧视和种族主义经历是体面工作的重要直接和间接预测因素。交互效应表明，性别歧视和种族主义的相互作用预测了工作意愿，性别歧视对体面工作的间接影响在种族主义程度较高时更强。这些结果对政策制定者和实践者具有启示意义，他们希望支持不同种族背景的女性获得体面的工作。
