This study extends the concept of organizational socialization from coworker support to its impact on shaping work-family conflict (WFC), job satisfaction, and turnover intention. Utilizing a sample of 413 female casino dealers, it investigates the interplay between coworker support, WFC, job satisfaction, and turnover intention among female employees in the Macau casino industry, focusing on the post-organizational socialization phase. The results indicate that support from coworkers significantly decreases WFC and improves job satisfaction. Both factors mediate the relationship between coworker support and turnover intention. Furthermore, WFC positively impacts turnover intention, while job satisfaction has a negative impact. These findings highlight the importance of casino management fostering supportive coworker relationships to improve job satisfaction and employee retention, thus enhancing the effectiveness of organizational socialization. This study contributes to the organizational socialization theory and provides practical implications for managing female employees in high-pressure environments.
本研究将组织社会化的概念从同事支持扩展到其对塑造工作-家庭冲突(WFC)、工作满意度和离职意愿的影响。该研究以413名女性赌场发牌员为样本,调查澳门赌场行业女性员工中同事支持、工作-家庭冲突、工作满意度和离职意愿之间的相互作用,重点关注组织社会化后的阶段。结果表明,同事的支持显著降低了工作-家庭冲突并提高了工作满意度。这两个因素在同事支持与离职意愿之间的关系中起中介作用。此外,工作-家庭冲突对离职意愿有正向影响,而工作满意度则有负向影响。这些发现凸显了赌场管理层培养支持性同事关系以提高工作满意度和员工留任率的重要性,从而增强组织社会化的有效性。本研究为组织社会化理论做出了贡献,并为在高压环境中管理女性员工提供了实际启示。
