Abstract
The worldwide pandemic has offered opportunities for both employees and managers to explore a hybrid work mode within organizations. This study focuses on job satisfaction within a hybrid work mode. We posit a positive association between job crafting as the predictor variable and job satisfaction as the outcome variable, within a hybrid work context. Additionally, we hypothesize a mediating role of autonomy need satisfaction between job crafting and job satisfaction. Lastly, we suggest a moderating effect of perceived organizational support on the relationship between job crafting and autonomy needs satisfaction. In this cross-sectional questionnaire study, we analyzed data from 122 employees who have had experience with hybrid working in the past 6 months. Data revealed a positive association between job crafting and job satisfaction within a hybrid work mode. Although no mediation or moderating effect has been found, we also found organizational support to positively contribute to autonomy need satisfaction. Furthermore, autonomy needs satisfaction also positively contributed to job satisfaction within a hybrid work mode. These findings suggest specific points of focus for human resource managers, as well as implications for further studies.
