Drawing support from the conservation of resources theory, cognitive appraisal theory and self-determination theory, we investigate the link between remote abusive supervision (RAS) and life satisfaction (LS) through the mediating roles of obsessive work passion (OWP) and work-to-life conflict...

Advances in digitalization have led employers to increasingly adopt electronic performance monitoring technologies that allow supervisors to observe, analyze and evaluate not only employees' work activities, but also their cognitive and behavioral data. This has significant implications for...

We examine the implementation of digital time tracking in home care services in Swedish municipalities. Our study combines original survey data with external measures of quality and costs, allowing us to examine both the perceived and estimated effects of time tracking. According to the...

Digitalisation and COVID-19 led to an expansion of remote work arrangements, raising the question of whether and how employers should monitor remote workplaces. However, before the implementation of monitoring methods, it is important to consider employees' acceptance of this approach....

We examine the implementation of digital time tracking in home care services in Swedish municipalities. Our study combines original survey data with external measures of quality and costs, allowing us to examine both the perceived and estimated effects of time tracking. According to the...

Increased surveillance of employees accompanying the move to work-from-home during the pandemic and other socio-technological developments have amplified long-standing concerns that employee tracking, electronic performance measurement and other forms of workplace surveillance are becoming both...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to use the concept of boundary turbulence from Communication Privacy Management (CPM) theory to better understand how employee monitoring impacts employee engagement. This study is one of the first in corporate communication to combine the frameworks of CPM...

"This book examines how organizations' use of algorithms is reconfiguring our understanding of control for millions of high-skilled workers who use online labor market platforms (e.g., Upwork, TopCoder, Gigster) to find their work. The book investigates how algorithms enable platforms to control...

Workplace surveillance is a necessity which was prompt by the development of information communication technologies that offered huge opportunities to employers to monitor their employees at work and even out of work which cause strict concerns for the privacy of employees. The present thesis...

We investigate the relationship between the slope of the wage-tenure profile and the level of monitoring across two cross sections of matched employer-employee British data. Our theoretical model predicts that increased monitoring leads to a decline in the slope of the wage-tenure profile. Our...

This paper proposes a basic model with two types of capital: productive capital directly involved in the production process and capital devoted to monitoring workers. Surveillance capital intensifies workers' job strain, while wage recognition encourages their engagement. Firms face a double...

Concerning the issue of conceptualization and operationalization of abusive supervision, contemporary studies including the one presented below discuss several issues. The presented paper is aimed at the downward (vertical) form of workplace bullying, described in literature as abusive...

Drawing upon conservation of resources theory, we develop and test a theoretical model that specifies how and when employee humor toward leaders affects leader abusive supervision. We propose that employee humor is negatively associated with leader abusive supervision via leader relational...
